NAME
     dialups - list of terminal devices requiring a dial-up pass-
     word

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 pass-
     word must be entered before the user is  granted  access  to
     the  computer. The set of ports that require a dial-up pass-
     word 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.  The file should have read and write permissions
     for the owner (root) only.
