Hi List,
after intensive debugging i found the reason for the problem described
below: to prevent users from logging in directly to our mail server
all shells for the users are set to /bin/false. but obviously sendmail
needs a real shell.
does anyone know a solution without setting the login shell to
something else than /bin/false?
or does someone know a different procmail rule for vacation?
thanks in advance for any help!
On my linux box there is a /sbin/nologin. I know historically
using /bin/false is the way to go. Would /sbin/nologin be the
same? What about changing the password field /etc/passwd to
'LOCKED' or something?
Mike
