I have "template shell = /sbin/nologin" in my Global smb.conf - How do I give certain domain users access to the shell for example: getent passwd cat cat:*:10016:10002:cat:/home/CAD/cat:/sbin/nologin how do I give user "cat" access to the shell " /bin/bash" ? usermod -s /bin/bash cat will not work since the user is not local to the linux machine -- "Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow."

Then in that script you could check the username and if it's a permitted user, run /bin/bash. Cheers, Adam.
