Usually when people say this they mean across multiple machines.  This
means a network system like NIS or LDAP.

But this looks like you have a single machine providing all these
services.  For all the services that have files under
/etc/pam.d
the consolidation is already done.  You'll have to drop in
the apache mod_auth_pam module which for some reason isn't
included: http://pam.sourceforge.net/mod_auth_pam/ for web
access - or if everyone has a local password you can just
give apache read access to the /etc/shadow file.
