You don't really authenticate _on_ the client which is what that
would control.  You authenticate against a gdm login on the server.
On a normal Fedora/RH setup, you would use authconfig-gtk to
set up the authentication methods, then the /etc/pam.d/system-auth
file that it builds is included by most of the pam service entries.
