Any progress on this bug? It seems the obsolete suggestions are still present in harden-doc/3.13 (even though the subsection number became 4.10.3). In the meanwhile PAM has changed in some details (less by-hand configuration is needed now, as far as I can tell). I really think this subsection should be updated, but I am not sure how (because I don't know how those obsolete suggestions should be translated for current Debian systems). -- New location for my website!
