PAM Module: It shows the list of available PAM modules supported in BMC.
Note: It is recommended to not to keep same username for different PAM modules.
If Authentication fails, the reason of fail could be invalid User or Invalid Password.
If Radius Authentication fails, we can't differentiate whether it is invalid user or invalid password. So it is always
treated as Invalid username error and PAM will try other Authentication Methods.
If AD contains secret username & password as empty, Authentication fails will be always treated as Invalid
Password error. For Invalid Password error PAM will not try other Authentication Methods.
keep AD in the last location in PAM order.
