I did some modifications in /etc/pam.d/common-auth, /etc/pam.d/common-account, /etc/pam.d/common-password, /etc/pam.d/common-session files. Is there any way to restore default pam configuration?

I am using ubuntu 12.04

    As advised by most guides on pam changes, you restore them from the backups you made (or copy them from another machine where you hadn't altered them)

Reset to default

I believe the pam-auth-update command resets to defaults.

    I know this is old but it helped solve my own issue of trying to reset and remove a machine from my LDAP configuration. Using "pam-auth-update --force" was exactly the trick to reset to base install settings.
