Hmm... what do you do for user shell info? Just assume that there are local /etc/passwd accounts for anyone who actually needs to login to the machine? How hard would it be to fake shell info as well, say by creating shell.zsh, shell.bash, etc PTS groups and putting a pts user in one? <<CDC _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
