PAM_TIME(8)                    Linux-PAM Manual                    PAM_TIME(8)

NAME
       pam_time - PAM module for time control access

SYNOPSIS
       pam_time.so [debug] [noaudit]

DESCRIPTION
       The pam_time PAM module does not authenticate the user, but instead it
       restricts access to a system and or specific applications at various
       times of the day and on specific days or over various terminal lines.
       This module can be configured to deny access to (individual) users
       based on their name, the time of day, the day of week, the service they
       are applying for and their terminal from which they are making their
       request.

       By default rules for time/port access are taken from config file
       /etc/security/time.conf.

       If Linux PAM is compiled with audit support the module will report when
       it denies access.
