isdnlog.users(5)	  Linux System Administration	      isdnlog.users(5)

NAME
       /etc/isdn/isdnlog.users - user base isdnlog config file

DESCRIPTION
       This  file  is  only  needed  if	 isdnlog  is  started with the "-xX" /
       "xisdn=" option. If this file does not exist,  isdnlog  will  create  a
       default	file and print a warning. This file contains information about
       which users are permitted to use isdnlog clients, and what their privi‐
       leges  are.  This file is checked every time a connection to isdnlog is
       made; thus, it is possible to edit  this	 file  and  have  the  changes
       effective immediately without having to stop and start isdnlog.

       For  now	 there	are  no	 real usable clients for isdnlog, so this file
       isn't very useful at the moment.

FORMAT
       Warning: the format of this file may change in the future.

       Blank lines are ignored. If a line has a "#", this char and the rest of
       the  line is ignored as comment. If the last char of a line is a " line
       and the next line are considered one line.  These characters  are  con‐
       sidered special: "$@#,;

       The  file  consists of lines; each line begins with the name of a user.
       After the user's name the privileges given to this user	are  specified
       (on the same line). The following privileges are possible, separated by
       semicolons ";" :

       ALL All of the privileges below are given.  Should  only	 be  given  to
	   root.

       MSN=msn[,msn...]
	   Only	 information  about  events  concerning	 the specified msns is
	   given.  This includes incoming and  outgoing	 calls,	 and  protocol
	   information.	  Any  number of msns may be given. Wildcards (such as
	   used in  isdn.conf)	are  permitted.	 With  "MSN=*"	all  msns  are
	   allowed.
	   Unknown  numbers  (e.g. from outgoing calls from other isdn devices
	   or incoming calls from analog connections) cannot be specified with
	   MSN=.   The	only  way to allow these calls to be seen is by giving
	   "MSN=*".

       PROTOCOL
	   The	information  specified	to  isdnlog  by	 the  -xX  flag	  (see
	   isdnlog(8)) is allowed.

       I4LCONF (planned)
	   This	 gives permission to change isdn4linux properties. This should
	   only be allowed to root.

       ADDRESSBOOK (planned)
	   This makes it possible to retrieve  /  store	 information  about  a
	   caller or called number.

       Users
       At the beginning of the file it is possible to specify users with host‐
       names:

	   fred@vom.jupiter MSN=4711?
	   root@host1.at.home ALL

       Here the user  "fred"  can  only	 connect  to  isdnlog  from  the  host
       "vom.jupiter".  Similarly, the user "root" is only allowed when on host
       "host1.at.home".

       Groups
       After the lines with hostnames, it is  possible	to  define  groups  of
       users  and  hostnames.  A  group	 looks	like a section as described in
       isdn.conf(5). It begins with a line such as:

	   [My_Group]

       and ends with the beginning of the next group or the end of  the	 file.
       Group  names are not case sensitive. In fact, group names are not actu‐
       ally used (except for [world], see below).

       In a group, lines consist of a username or a  hostname.	Lines  with  a
       username	 must  also  contain  those  privileges that the user has.  No
       privileges can be listed with a hostname.

	   heinz MSN=*;PROTOCOL
	   @host1
	   @host2
	   otto MSN=47111,47112
	   @host3

       The above example allows the users heinz and otto to connect  from  any
       of the hosts host1, host2 and host3. The user heinz can see information
       about all msns, user otto can only see information about msns 47111 and
       47112.

       If  anyone is allowed to do anything, then it is enough to put only the
       following line into the file "isdnlog.users":

	   [world]
