On my system, which is Fedora clone, all of the pam files for gdm are
installed under $GARNOME/etc/pam.d. So the question is "What's going on
with Stefan's system?".
Here is what I see from the install log on my system.
system=`uname`; \
if test -f /usr/include/security/pam_appl.h; then \
if test '!' -d /usr/local/src/GARNOME/2.14/garnome-2.14.x/etc/pam.d; then \
/bin/sh ../mkinstalldirs /usr/local/src/GARNOME/2.14/garnome-2.14.x/etc/pam.d; \
chmod 755 /usr/local/src/GARNOME/2.14/garnome-2.14.x/etc/pam.d; \
fi; \
if test $system = Linux && test '!' -f /usr/local/src/GARNOME/2.14/garnome-2.14.x/etc/pam.d/gdm; then \
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 gdm /usr/local/src/GARNOME/2.14/garnome-2.14.x/etc/pam.d/gdm; \
fi; \
if test $system = Linux && test '!' -f /usr/local/src/GARNOME/2.14/garnome-2.14.x/etc/pam.d/gdm-autologin; then \
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 gdm-autologin /usr/local/src/GARNOME/2.14/garnome-2.14.x/etc/pam.d/gdm-autologin; \
fi; \
if test $system = SunOS; then \
echo "Please add PAM authentication for gdm and gdm-autologin
in /usr/local/src/GARNOME/2.14/garnome-2.14.x/etc/pam.conf!"; \
fi; \
fi
...
/bin/sh ./mkinstalldirs /usr/local/src/GARNOME/2.14/garnome-2.14.x/etc/pam.d
/usr/bin/install -c -m
644 ./gdmsetup-pam /usr/local/src/GARNOME/2.14/garnome-2.14.x/etc/pam.d/gdmsetup
