Oh I guess I did skip over the easier way, default AuthSelect is
  select PASSWORD from SUBSCRIBERS where USERNAME='%n'

So assuming I wanted to not let users in with the UNIXGROUP Field in the
SUBSCRIBERS Table
of 9206, id do
  select PASSWORD from SUBSCRIBERS where USERNAME='%n' AND UNIXGROUP != 9206

Id thought about that, query will come back empty for a user with 9206 in
UNIXGROUP, so they will get an Auth-Reject.
Much simpler...
