+.Sh NOTES
+It is important to note that loading a chain will fail if any of the
+components of the chain fail to load or are not available.
+A common situation when this can happen is on a system that where
+components such as
+.Xr kerberos 1
+or
+.Xr crypto 3
+have not been installed.
+In that situation
+.Xr pam_krb5 8 ,
+.Xr pam_ksu 8 ,
+or
+.Xr pam_ssh 8
+might not be present in the system.
+In order for a chain to load properly all non-present components must
+be removed from the chain.
