using authorization with dictd.conf

[Tim S. <sul...@on...>]

Hello,

I am testing the authorization features with the dictd server. My plan is
to allow only one user allowed access to the server. From what I
understood in the dictd man page, this dictd.conf configuration will allow
me to do
that:

 database web1913 { data "/usr/local/lib/dict-dbs/web1913.dict.dz"
                   index "/usr/local/lib/dict-dbs/web1913.index"
 }
 access { deny * }
 user sullivti <secret>

However, I recieve this error when starting the server:

 $ ./dictd.init start
 dictd starting.
 /usr/local/etc/dictd.conf:5: parse error, expecting `$'
 /usr/local/etc/dictd.conf:5: access { deny * }
 /usr/local/etc/dictd.conf:5: ^^^^^^
 dictd (yyerror): parse error

The third line is very confusing to me.

Thank you to anyone who can give me a clue on what to do, and thank you
for your help in the past.
