PAM Vs Trusted mode in HP-UX

Hi All,

Some questions on PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modulues) and Trusted mode in HP-UX.

As default, when I turn on trusted mode (need shadow password only), the PAM is atomatically installed(not sure the word "installed" is appropriate or not). Can we turn on the trusted mode only, but the PAM is still not activated?

The behind reason is our vendor doesn't support PAM, but turn on trusted mode is required in our company standard. Just want to know is it possible to do that.

I am beginner of UNIX.

Regards
Wilson
