Installation:

tar xvfz pam_eaccess-0.1.tar.gz
cd pam_eaccess
./configure
make
sudo make install

Usage:

pam.d/< service >

Well, it’s actually very simple, you just need to add the following line to pam config :

auth required pam_eaccess.so

Note: the keyword debug is supported.

/etc/pam-access.conf

Note: this filename is actually hardcoded, you can’t use another destination
pamtest: asyd, bruno

This file has the following form :

one service per line, the service name MUST be followed by :
users lists coma separated

The keyword [ALL] which can be used for service and/or users act as a wildcard.
