Re: Incorrect logins - incorrect
Yes, /bin/false is a valid shell. We are going to install a new machine. This machine must have a hardware problem of some sort. The shells that Radius is saying is wrong are parts of the password file belonging to another customer. This machine also locks up periodically for a few seconds at a time. This is something else that makes us believe it's a hardware issue.
