 571 Manage access control lists for network services. There are currently
 572 two named access control lists, @var{vnc.x509dname} and @var{vnc.username}
 573 matching on the x509 client certificate distinguished name, and SASL
 574 username respectively.
 575
 576 @table @option
 577 @item acl show <aclname>
 578 list all the match rules in the access control list, and the default
 579 policy
 580 @item acl policy <aclname> @code{allow|deny}
 581 set the default access control list policy, used in the event that
 582 none of the explicit rules match. The default policy at startup is
 583 always @code{deny}
 584 @item acl allow <aclname> <match> [<index>]
 585 add a match to the access control list, allowing access. The match will
 586 normally be an exact username or x509 distinguished name, but can
 587 optionally include wildcard globs. eg @code{*@@EXAMPLE.COM} to allow
 588 all users in the @code{EXAMPLE.COM} kerberos realm. The match will
 589 normally be appended to the end of the ACL, but can be inserted
 590 earlier in the list if the optional @code{index} parameter is supplied.
 591 @item acl deny <aclname> <match> [<index>]
 592 add a match to the access control list, denying access. The match will
 593 normally be an exact username or x509 distinguished name, but can
 594 optionally include wildcard globs. eg @code{*@@EXAMPLE.COM} to allow
 595 all users in the @code{EXAMPLE.COM} kerberos realm. The match will
 596 normally be appended to the end of the ACL, but can be inserted
 597 earlier in the list if the optional @code{index} parameter is supplied.
 598 @item acl remove <aclname> <match>
 599 remove the specified match rule from the access control list.
 600 @item acl reset <aclname>
 601 remove all matches from the access control list, and set the default
 602 policy back to @code{deny}.
