Subject: FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE & disabling ssh access


> Heya!
> ermmm... I just Installed 5.0-RELEASE two days ago and i have a question
about adduser.
> i am using adduser to add users. on my 4.5 machine i was able to choose,
to let users use ssh access or don't let them use by adding shell: no , what
i found in 5.0 that there is no such choise, only this:
> Shell (sh csh tcsh bash) [sh]: /sbin/nologin
> adduser: ERROR: Invalid shell selection. Using default shell /bin/sh.
>
> so how to disable ssh access for the user? i looked in /etc/passwd , some
accounts have /sbin/nologin but i wasn't able to do old stile like 4.5 used
to let me do. so how should i fix this one?
