   --with-DCE
-	Enable DCE support.  Known to work on HP-UX 9.X, 10.X, and 11.0.
-	The use of PAM is recommended for HP-UX 11.X systems, since PAM is
-	fully implemented (this is not true for 10.20 and earlier versions).
-	Check to see that your 11.X (or other) system uses DCE via PAM by
-	looking at /etc/pam.conf to see if "libpam_dce" libraries are 
-	referenced there.  Other platforms may require source code and/or 
-	`configure' changes; you should check to see if your platform can 
-	access DCE via PAM before using this option.
+	Enable DCE support for systems without PAM.  Known to work on
+	HP-UX 9.X, 10.X, and 11.0; other systems may require source
+	code and/or `configure' changes.  On systems with PAM support
+	(such as HP-UX 11.0 and higher, Solaris, FreeBSD and Linux), the
+	DCE PAM module (usually libpam_dce) should be used instead.
 
   --with-logincap
 	Enable support for BSD login classes where available (OS-dependent).
