Selected Answer: C
C is correct! CONTROL Indicates the behavior of a PAM module. Each module can have the following control flags: -required: A module with this flag must be successfully processed before the authentication may proceed. After the failure of a module with the required flag, all other modules with the same flag are processed before the user receives a message about the failure of the authentication attempt.
