Simple... create the user as normal with the shell set to /bin/null
and tell it not to create a directory for the user... Nothing could
be easier.

Subject: Creating "unprivledged" users, just as "nobody"
Howdy,
I want to set up a new user - listar - for a the mail serv program to run
as.
I DO NOT want it to have a login shell and definitely not a /home/~.
What's the proper way to do this?
Should I make a listargroup group to go with it?
JW
