<para>
PAM does work authenticating against Unix system authentication
because the postgres server is started by a non-root user. In order
to enable this functionality, the root user must provide additional
permissions to the postgres user (for reading
<filename>/etc/shadow</>).
If PAM is set up to read <filename>/etc/shadow</>, authentication
will fail because the PostgreSQL server is started by a non-root
user. However, this is not an issue with LDAP or other authentication
methods.
