/etc/pam.d/systam-auth file:
-- start --
#%PAM-1.0
# This file is auto-generated.
# User changes will be destroyed the next time authconfig is run.
auth        required      pam_env.so
auth        sufficient    pam_unix.so nullok try_first_pass
auth        requisite     pam_succeed_if.so uid >= 500 quiet
auth        required      pam_deny.so

account     required      pam_unix.so
account     sufficient    pam_succeed_if.so uid < 500 quiet
account     required      pam_permit.so

password    requisite     pam_cracklib.so retry=3
password    sufficient    pam_unix.so md5 nullok try_first_pass use_authtok
password    required      pam_deny.so

session     required      pam_limits.so
session     required      pam_unix.so
-- end --
Do I have to change them to "Required"? Or would I be able to make it so 
that I tell my system to use pam_tally for everything, but it will only 
block SSH?
Thanks,
