NAME
ss5.passwd - Contains usernames and passwords for user authentication.
SYNOPSIS
ss5 usually reads the password file, ss5.passwd, in the /etc/opt/ss5 directory.
DESCRIPTION
To enable Username/Password authentication with the ss5 daemon you must create a password file, and modify the ss5 configuration file, ss5.conf.
In the password file, add one line for each user. Each line should contain the username and password for the user, separated by white space.
In the ss5 configuration file, add an auth line to require authentication and allow the user access. For additional information about the ss5 configuration file, refer to the ss5.conf(5) man page.
