-# Description of its configuration file
-#
-# (The default config file is "/etc/security/access.conf". This
-# default can be overridden with a module config argument
-# 'accessfile=<full-path>'):
-#
-# Login access control table.
-#
-# When someone logs in, the table is scanned for the first entry that
-# matches the (user, host) combination, or, in case of non-networked
-# logins, the first entry that matches the (user, tty) combination. The
-# permissions field of that table entry determines whether the login will
-# be accepted or refused.
-#
-# Format of the login access control table is three fields separated by a
-# ":" character:
-#
-# permission : users : origins
-#
-# The first field should be a "+" (access granted) or "-" (access denied)
-# character.
-#
-# The second field should be a list of one or more login names, group
-# names, or ALL (always matches). A pattern of the form user@host is
-# matched when the login name matches the "user" part, and when the
-# "host" part matches the local machine name.
-#
-# The third field should be a list of one or more tty names (for
-# non-networked logins), host names, domain names (begin with "."), host
-# addresses, internet network numbers (end with "."), ALL (always
-# matches) or LOCAL (matches any string that does not contain a "."
-# character).
-#
-# If you run NIS you can use @netgroupname in host or user patterns; this
-# even works for @usergroup@@hostgroup patterns. Weird.
-#
-# The EXCEPT operator makes it possible to write very compact rules.
-#
-# The group file is searched only when a name does not match that of the
-# logged-in user. Both the user's primary group is matched, as well as
-# groups in which users are explicitly listed.
