+ThinkFinger 0.3 : Fedora specific installation instructions
+===========================================================
 
-OK this README is meant for users using the Fedora distribution.
-The installation is almost the same, there are just some bits I wanted
-you to take into consideration.
+This README file is for users wishing to enable the ThinkFinger support in
+Fedora.
 
 Installation Instructions
 =========================
 
-Please check the INSTALL and INSTALL.fedora files.
+Please refer to the INSTALL file located in /usr/share/doc/thinkfinger-* for
+details on enrolling your fingerprints.
 
-General Fedora specific notes
-=============================
+You will need to configure PAM to use pam_thinkfinger.so as a sufficient
+authorisation source.
 
-- Where are the user bir files ?
+Example of /etc/pam.d/system-auth, using ThinkFinger
+====================================================
 
-  These are located in /etc/security/pam_thinkfinger
-  In the default installs these are in /etc/pam_thinkfinger
+Below is the 'auth' section of the system-auth PAM configuration file.
 
-- There are some other differences we still need to clarify here.
+Please note: only the auth section is shown below, with the required changes
+for ThinkFinger. The rest of this file remains untouched.
 
-Example of a Fedora setup

 # User changes will be destroyed the next time authconfig is run.

-Any questions?
-==============
+If you make any changes to your authentication setup using the Fedora
+"authconfig" or "system-config-authentication" tools, you will need to re-add
+the pam_thinkfinger.so module configuration. This is because the Fedora tools
+are not aware of pam_thinkfinger.
+
+To enable debugging of the pam_thinkfinger module, add the "debug" option to
+the pam_thinkfinger.so modules, thusly:
