The \term{ejabberdctl} script can be restricted to require authentication

Add the option to the file \term{ejabberd.yml}.
In this example there is no restriction:

The frontends can be configured to restrict access to certain commands.
The frontends can be configured to restrict access to certain commands
using the \term{AccessCommands}.
In that case, authentication information must be provided.
This option allows quite complex settings, so it does not use the YAML format,
instead it uses the Erlang format.
If you want to set that option,
then you must move the frontend definition to another config file
and include it using the \term{include\_config\_file} option
(see section~\ref{includeconfigfile} and the example below).
In each frontend the \term{AccessCommands} option is defined
in a different place. But in all cases the option syntax is the same:

In summary, you put the frontends configurations in a CFG file using Erlang format, for example a file called \term{additional.cfg}:
\begin{verbatim}
{ejabberdctl_access_commands, [ {ctlaccess, [registered_users, register], []} ]}.
{listen, [

{access_commands, [
{ctlaccess, [registered_users], [{host, "localhost"}]}

and then add this line at the end of your main ejabberd configuration file, usually called \term{ejabberd.yml}:
