# WARNING: 'UsePAM no' is not supported in Mageia and may cause several
# problems.
I wonder about the usefulness of such comment...

What does means 'not supported' ? The software has been patched, and its behaviour changed in such a way that it will not work as documented ? Or any bug report on bugzilla will automatically result in a question 'did you change UsePAM directive in sshd' before even attempting to identify end user problem ?

And as changing ANY configuration directive in ANY software may result in problems, what's the point of a specific warning here ?

So, what's the added value of this comment over default configuration ?
