Description-en: PAM module checking access of source IPs with a GeoIP2 database
This PAM module provides GeoIP2 checking for logins. The user can be
allowed or denied based on the location of the originating IP address.
This is similar to pam_access, but uses a GeoIP2 City database instead
of host name / IP matching.
