I use PAM because of the easyness of blocking specific validated users - you 
can just add/remove them in a plain text file. Easy administration will be 
necessary because of the planned huge amount of users on the system (28.000), 
and sometimes blocking a user is highly time-dependent (e.g. if one answers to 
a phising mail and sending out his credentials which are then abused for 
sending spam).

I would go over LDAP if there is an equivalent easy way to solve this over LDAP 
(easy blocking out users by e.g editing a plain text file) - is there any?

Thanks,
Megodin
