Hi,
I'm using nanobsd.sh on 6.0RC to provide a small world for diskless
boxes. These are for small single-purpose machines -- i.e., DNS
server, FTP server, etc, served off read-only NFS. Nothing exciting
there, it just works.
The last problem I'm having is the password file. I need to assign
separate password files to each, and separate root passwords on each
diskless station. The problem, of course, is the MFS /etc, so changes
are not permanent.
Is there any way to make passwd(1) talk to a different password file?
I really don't want to use read/write mounts on my NFS server. Or,
has anyone come up with a clever way to do this? All the tutorials in
Google talk about using the server's password file, which I
specifically don't want to do...
Thanks!
