example:
Following the client group is an access directive. The access directive is
of the form
access=value
. The allowed access values are
ip_allow
,
ip_deny
,
basic
,
generic
, and
custom
. Depending on the access
directive, you can further specify an authenticator program, users, and
passwords, as in the following examples:
ip=0.0.0.0-255.255.255.255
ip=127.0.0.1
domain=intel.com
hostname=myhost.mydomain.com
ip=127.0.0.1 access=”generic” authenticator=”homebrew”
user=”joe”
hostname=myhost.com access=”basic” user=”joe” pass=”bob”
