| 	module pipe
  		option = prog=/path/to/external/program

note that the host and ip lines are optionnal

| what does iauth.conf(5) mean about i/o ?
| 
| re input, shoukd it get arguments from stdin like

nothing on stdin.. arguments as argv[1] and [2]

| and re output, should it print 'Y' or 'N' to stdout ?

right.

| question 3: are there any good samples or documentations about this ?

no,
the module hasn't really been tested nor completely
finished. (In particular, it doesn't call wait() after the
children die.).

It needs be cleaned up.
