PAM is a framework that assists applications in performing what I'll call authentication-related activities. The core pieces of PAM are a library (libpam) and a collection of PAM modules, which are dynamically linked libraries (.so) files in the folder /lib/security.
ASP.NET authentication is a two-step process. First, Internet Information Services (IIS) authenticates the user and creates a Windows token to represent the user. IIS determines the authentication mode that it should use for a particular application by looking at IIS metabase settings. If IIS is configured to use anonymous authentication, a token for the IUSR_MACHINE account is generated and used to represent the anonymous user. IIS-then passes the token to ASP.NET.
