Constructing an Access Rule in pam_authz.policy
In the policy file, /etc/opt/ldapux/pam_authz.policy, an access rule consists of three
fields as follows:
<action>:<type>:<object>
All fields are mandatory except for the <object> field when unix_local_user or Other is
specified in the <type> field. If any field is missing or contains the incorrect syntax, the access
rule is considered to be invalid and is ignored by PAM_AUTHZ.
These fields have the following limitations:
• No leading or trailing empty space is allowed in a field
• Fields are separated by a separator, :
• No leading or trailing empty space is allowed in a separator
• An access rule is terminated by a carriage return

Table 5-1 shows a summary on all possible values and syntax of an access rule:
