12 upsd.users - Administrative user definitions for NUT upsd
13 !!DESCRIPTION
14
15
16 Administrative commands such as setting variables and the
17 instant commands are powerful, and access to them needs to
18 be restricted. This file defines who may access them, and
19 what is available.
20
21
22 Each user gets its own section. The fields in that section
23 set the parameters associated with that user's privileges.
24 The section begins with the name of the user in brackets,
25 and continues until the next user name in brackets or
26 EOF.

30
31
32 [[admin]
33 password = mypass
34 allowfrom = admworkstation admhome
35 actions = set
36 instcmds = all
37 [[pfy]
38 password = duh
39 allowfrom = gameosbox
40 instcmds = fptest

92 !!NEW FORMAT
93
94
95 This file's format had to be forcibly changed to dump an
96 evil and confusing scheme that required duplicating elements
97 far too often.
98
99
100 upsd(8) doesn't know how to parse the old format.
101 Once you install the new upsd, you must rewrite this file to
102 use the new section-based style as documented
103 above.
