The users do not log in except for a few admins. I have set the users shells to /sbin/nologin. I have some users that want auto responders for their email addresses. I have been using the vacation program in conjunction with the .forward files. This causes a problem since the vacation program needs a valid shell. I have allowed logons to those few users. I do not like this approach. Is there a way to not allow user logins and use vacation.
