dpasswd(4)                DG/UX 4.30                 dpasswd(4)



     NAME
          d_passwd - log-in programs and passwords for dial-up devices

     SYNOPSIS
          /etc/dpasswd

     DESCRIPTION
          This file contains an entry for programs (such as shells)
          that login(1) can invoke for users logging into the system
          via dial-up devices.  Each entry includes the encrypted
          password that the user must provide in order to invoke the
          program.  You have to create a dpasswd file yourself; the
          system does not create one for you.

          A dial-up device is any device that has an entry in the
          /etc/dialups file.  See dialups(4).  You have to create a
          dialups file yourself; the system does not create one for
          you.

          When a user logs into a dial-up device, login requires that
          they provide a second ("dial-up") password in addition to
          their personal password.  The password they provide
          determines the program that login executes for them.

          Here is a sample dpasswd entry:

          /bin/csh:xxxxxx:

          where xxxxxx is the encrypted password.
