Manages the hosts to which a user may login. It implements the complete module interface and uses meta-data
provided by the account modules for its functions.
Location and naming of modules
All LAM modules are placed in lib/modules/ and are named ".inc".
E.g. if you create a new module and its class name is "qmail" then the filename would be "qmail.inc".
The class name of a module must contain only a-z, A-Z, 0-9, -, and _.
You can avoid to override many functions by using {@link get_metaData()}.
All module classes should extend the baseModule class.
