Even with a shell of /bin/false or /dev/null they are still able to connect to the modems. Just not able to get a shell. I want to prevent them from connecting with that login completely. Basically I give some users two logins. One to connect with and the other is a usable second e-mail. I want them to be able to get the e-mail but not connect to the modem with the second username. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
