Install PAM(Pluggable Authentication Modules) in Slackware 14.2
PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) is a service that implements modular authentication modules. PAM is implemented as a set of shared objects that are loaded and executed when a program needs to authenticate a user.
Files for PAM are typically located in the /etc/pam.d directory. But the pam.d directory is non-existent within my Slackware system. Do I have to install it? If yes, what is the name of the package?

There is no PAM package in Slackware. It forces to many constraints on system (just like ie Gnome), and Slackware idea is to have modular system where packages can be easily replaced by user/admin.
There is also no unofficial package on https://slackbuilds.org/ , sorry.
