Thank you John.

But it's really a | question for the FreeBSD folks, i.e. is there something you can do that | will leave "operator" with valid, but useless, shell. | | One possibility (although I know zip about FreeBSD) might be to set the | shell to /bin/false and add /bin/false to /etc/shells (or whatever file | they use to define what is valid). | +----] Tried it with no sucess. Set /bin/false and added it to /etc/shells. The problem is that since /bin/false doesn't exist, a command like: su amanda -c "amcheck normal" fails. Again it works if I set /bin/csh to amanda. Regarding the other problems with my setup. They're all solved! Thanks for all the responses to my post. Both the comments and the pointers got me there quickly enough. Fernan
