LDAP-UX Client Services B.04.10 Administrator's Guide (edition 7)
Policy File
The system administrator can define a local access policy and store all defined access rules in
the policy file, /etc/opt/ldapux/pam_authz.policy. The PAM_AUTHZ service module
uses this local policy file to process the access rules and to control the login authorization.
LDAP-UX Client Services provides a sample configuration file,
/etc/opt/ldapux/pam_authz.policy.template. This sample file shows you how to
configure the policy file to work with PAM_AUTHZ. You can copy this sample file and edit it
using the correct syntax to specify the access rules you wish to authorize or exclude from
authorization. For detailed information on how to construct an access rule in the policy file, see
Constructing an Access Rule in pam_authz.policy (page 103).
NOTE: By default, the allow:unix_local_user access rule in the
/etc/opt/ldapux/pam_authz.policy.template file is enabled.
