The default config file is in /etc/security/pamusb.conf. I moved there because I think is more appropiate to be there with other pam configs.
OK, I did not see it first. But pamusb-conf use /etc/pamusb.conf by default. I am think it need to be cleared (moved back or simlinked) so users did not fall into this situation.
That's right. I'll issue a patch.
