NAME
fbtab - change device protection upon login
DESCRIPTION
The fbtab file contains a number of lines specifying a device together
with a list of devices with associated protections. Comments start with
a `#' and extend to the end of the line.
Blank lines or lines with only a comment are ignored.
All other lines consist of three fields delimited by whitespace: a login
device (/dev/ttyv0), an octal permission number (0600), and a colon (`:')
delimited list of device patterns (/dev/console, /dev/dsp*). All device
patterns are absolute paths.
If the tty argument (relative path) matches a login device name (absolute
path), the permissions of the devices in the colon-delimited list are set
as specified in the second field, and their ownership is changed to that
of the UID and GID arguments.
FILES
/etc/fbtab The fbtab file resides in /etc.
