+.SH NAME
+rlm_always \- FreeRADIUS Module
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The \fIrlm_always\fP module provides a simple way to "always" return a
+value during the processing of a configuration section.
+.PP
+The main configuration item is \fIrcode\fP, which sets the return code that
+this instantiation of the module will return. The default, if none
+specified, is 'fail'.
+.PP
+The valid options for rcode are as follows:
+.RS
+.TP
+reject
+reject the user;
+.IP fail
+a failure has occurred;
+.IP ok
+success;
+.IP handled
+the request has been handled: processing should be stopped and the response
+sent;
+.IP invalid
+request is invalid;
+.IP userlock
+the user account has been locked out;
+.IP notfound
+the user account cannot be found;
+.IP noop
+no-op: nothing has happened;
+.IP updated
+the request has been updated.
+.RE
+.SH CONFIGURATION
+.PP
+.IP "rcode = <code>"
+This module will always return with the code specified, as listed in the
+table above. If unspecified, the default is 'fail'.
+.IP "simulcount = <n>"
+If this module is used in the session{} section, the simulcount option
+simulates the user having 'n' current sessions. The default is to not
+override the number of sessions.
+.IP "mpp = <yes|no>"
+If set to yes, and this module is used in the session{} section, this
+simulates the user having multilink sessions. The default is 'no'.
