PAM_TIME(8) Linux-PAM Manual PAM_TIME(8)
pam_time - PAM module for time control access
pam_time.so [conffile=conf-file] [debug] [noaudit]
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. An alternative file can be specified with
the conffile option.
If Linux PAM is compiled with audit support the module will report
when it denies access.
conffile=/path/to/time.conf
Indicate an alternative time.conf style configuration file to
override the default.
debug
Some debug information is printed with syslog(3).
noaudit
Do not report logins at disallowed time to the audit
