Is there an easier way to do this? second, im running an openbsd box as a mail server, nis works fine, but I add +:::::::::/sbin/nologin, and when I test it, it says.. su: /sbin/nologin : no such file or directory, when in fact the file does exist. Now, I realize this is probably an openbsd problem, but I thought id ask, just in case someone could tell me what was up.
