/etc/pam.d/common-password

password required pam_pwcheck.so nullok
password required pam_unix2.so nullok use_authtok

/etc/pam.d/common-account
account required pam_unix2.so

/etc/pam.d/common-session
session optional pam_mkhomedir.so
session required pam_limits.so
session required pam_unix2.so

/etc/pam.d/common-auth
