You will have to make that file, and its format should resemble this: # FQDN (or IP address) USER SERVICES that USER can run # as listed in your # hosts files # or resolved by dns coyote.coyote.den amanda amdump amindexd amidxtaped coyote amanda amdump amindexd amidxtaped coyote.coyote.den root amdump amindexd amidxtaped shop.coyote.den root amdump amindexd amidxtaped shop root amdump amindexd amidxtaped shop.coyote.den amanda amdump amindexd amidxtaped shop amanda amdump amindexd amidxtaped duplicated as you can see on a user basis. IP address usage is discouraged.
