+# /etc/pam.d/common-password - password-related modules common to all services
+#
+# This file is included from other service-specific PAM config files,
+# and should contain a list of modules that define the services to be
+# used to change user passwords. The default is pam_unix.
+
+# Explanation of pam_unix options:
+# The "yescrypt" option enables
+#hashed passwords using the yescrypt algorithm, introduced in Debian
+#11. Without this option, the default is Unix crypt. Prior releases
+#used the option "sha512"; if a shadow password hash will be shared
+#between Debian 11 and older releases replace "yescrypt" with "sha512"
+#for compatibility . The "obscure" option replaces the old
+#`OBSCURE_CHECKS_ENAB' option in login.defs. See the pam_unix manpage
+#for other options.
+
+# As of pam 1.0.1-6, this file is managed by pam-auth-update by default.
+# To take advantage of this, it is recommended that you configure any
+# local modules either before or after the default block, and use
+# pam-auth-update to manage selection of other modules. See
+# pam-auth-update(8) for details.
+
+# here are the per-package modules (the "Primary" block)
