We need to manage /etc/passwd where there would be one line at the very end of the file to restrict access to all users not explictly allowed:
+::::::/sbin/nologin If using delete_lines and append_if_no_such_lines (similar to this one at http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/528) to manage access control, each time a few new users got appended to /etc/passwd file, the above line would be deleted and appended, for many times, while it only needs to be done once. Any better way to manage this file in terms of access control? Augeas is buggy and I filed a bug report on this already. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
