NAME
ppl.users - translate user login names to default remote host names
DESCRIPTION
There are two ways for ppl to determine the remote address, and hence
the corresponding ppl.remotes information (see ppl(1)):
o Specify it on the command line.
o If not specified on the command line, use the invoking user's
login name to determine the default remote hostname to use by
means of this file.
ppl.users contains a series of login-name/remote-host pairs, one pair
per line. The login name must appear in /etc/passwd. The remote host
can be either in dotted decimal format or a name that is translatable
by gethostent() (see gethostent(3N)). Blank lines or lines beginning
with a # are ignored.
