<div style="text-align: left;">The account types define what kind of
accounts can be managed with LAM. If you want to create a new account
module which does not fit in the existing classes of users, groups and
hosts then you need your own account type.<br>
<br>
All account types are saved in <span style="font-weight: bold;">lib/types/</span>.<br>
<br>
Please take a look at the <a href="type_index.htm">type HowTo</a> for
an example to write your own types.<br>
The complete specification for the type interface can be found <a
 href="types-specification.htm">here</a>.<br>
<br>
<h2>Superclass</h2>
All <span style="font-weight: bold;">account types</span> should be
subclasses of the <a href="base_type.htm">baseType</a>.<br>
This reduces very much the code since not the complete type interface
has
to be implemented.<br>
<br>
<br>
<h2>Type detection</h2>
New types can simply be copied to <span style="font-weight: bold;">lib/types</span>.
LAM will check what files are inside the directory and provide the user
new types automatically.<br>
There is no extra configuration file.<br>
