I m trying setting up my ppp server.
My PPP server setup instructions ask me to create an accont called ppp,
so normally I have in /etc/passwd something like:
ppp:C9J79S0B3K/j6:501:501::/home/ppp:/bin/bash
But my ppp server setup instructions recommend to create a ppp login
script (the path for it would be /etc/ppp/ppplogin ) and that I should
add a line referring to it ..to the path of ppp in /etc/passwd. That
means something like:
ppp:C9J79S0B3K/j6:501:501::/home/ppp:/etc/ppp/ppplogin:/bin/bash
The problem is that, as soon as I do any modification to the ppp line in
/etc/passwd, I cannot log in anymore with the user ppp. At the login
prompt, I enter ppp, then the passwd, but it will get me back to the
original login prompt as if it refuses the user ppp
anymore..
How to go through that..I guess I really need to find a way for adding
the path for the ppp login script in /etc/passwd..but how..
Thanks
