Um, you seem to be a bit confused about what PAM is and how it
interacts with various authentication systems.  I presume what
you really want is to be able to use SecurID to authenticate
to AFS?  If so, you would need to change a LOT MORE than just
the pam module.  If you just want to use SecurID for system
logon, then you should write a new pam_securid.so module instead
of trying to re-use the afs module.
