combination of user name, group member, terminal port, host name or
network.
See
function determines whether traditional UNIX (non-S/Key) passwords
are permitted for any combination of user name, group member,
terminal port, host name, and network. If UNIX passwords are allowed,
.Fn skeyaccess
returns a non-zero value. If UNIX passwords are not allowed, it
returns 0. See
