NAME
       dialups - list of terminal devices requiring a dial-up password

SYNOPSIS
       /etc/dialups

DESCRIPTION
       dialups	is  an	 ASCII	file which contains a list of terminal devices
       that require a dial-up password. A dial-up password  is	an  additional
       password	 required  of users who access the computer through a modem or
       dial-up port.  The correct password must be entered before the user  is
       granted access to the computer. The set of ports that require a dial-up
       password are  listed in the dialups file.

       Each entry in the dialups file is a single line of the form:

	      terminal-device

       where

       terminal-device	       The full path name of the terminal device  that
			       will  require  a	 dial-up  password  for	 users
			       accessing the computer through a modem or dial-
			       up port.

       The  dialups  file should be owned by the root user and the root group.

       only.
