Access time of a file

I thought that access time of a file is time when the file was run last time (or I read somewhere that it's time when system lookup the file -> but I'm not sure when it really is)

How is it exactly?

Thank you for help!

PAM_TIME(8)							 Linux-PAM Manual						       PAM_TIME(8)

NAME
pam_time - PAM module for time control access SYNOPSIS
pam_time.so [debug] [noaudit] DESCRIPTION
The pam_time PAM module does not authenticate the user, but instead it restricts access to a system and or specific applications at various times of the day and on specific days or over various terminal lines. This module can be configured to deny access to (individual) users based on their name, the time of day, the day of week, the service they are applying for and their terminal from which they are making their request. By default rules for time/port access are taken from config file /etc/security/time.conf. If Linux PAM is compiled with audit support the module will report when it denies access. OPTIONS
debug Some debug information is printed with syslog(3). noaudit Do not report logins at disallowed time to the audit subsystem. MODULE TYPES PROVIDED
Only the account type is provided. RETURN VALUES
PAM_SUCCESS Access was granted. PAM_ABORT Not all relevant data could be gotten. PAM_BUF_ERR Memory buffer error. PAM_PERM_DENIED Access was not granted. PAM_USER_UNKNOWN The user is not known to the system. FILES
/etc/security/time.conf Default configuration file EXAMPLES
#%PAM-1.0 # # apply pam_time accounting to login requests # login account required pam_time.so SEE ALSO
