I have a variety of users I need to accommodate/limit By editing vipw myself I have been able to create mail only accounts using /noexistent for home directory and /usr/bin/passwd for the shell... Is there a better solution? I heard this solution is a security issue. How can I do something similar and limit certain accounts to ftp only? How can I do something similar and limit certain accounts to ftp and mail only? How do I keep users from leaving the /home partition? I don't want them to be able to cd to / or /etc or /root for example. I saw something about 'chmod 700 $HOME /home/averageuser' I really don't know. I have done the usual searching of deja and freebsd mail archives and did not get much in the way of specific answers.
