I'm learning about low-permission and restricted users and groups. I'm curious about users like "nobody" and groups like "nobody"
What does a user like this look like? home? password? etc.
I have seen a user report recently showing the nobody user in Mac OS X as something like:
name: nobody group: nobody home: /dev/null password: ? shell: /sbin/nologin
I have poked around on the Internet, no good sources turned up explaining users/groups like nobody:nobody in detail, like how and more importantly "why". Hoping the list might have some insight as well as suggested best practices for creating a similar user/group for processes.
Thanks, Tim
