First you need to change the NIS configuration to compat mode. Edit /etc/nsswitch.conf and change the passwd line to: passwd: files compat Then add this line to the end of /etc/passwd: +::::::/sbin/nologin and make sure /sbin/nologin is listed in /etc/shells. (You can use /bin/false instead of /sbin/nologin). --- Ian -- Ian [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ian Mortimer Tel: +61 7 3365 3436 Physics Fax: +61 7 3365 1242 University of Queensland -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
