Question about password field in passwd-file
...ur reply.
I have two questions regarding this:
1. Is the ?nopassword? attribute the same as specifying a null password field by itself ? The documentation at
[1] seems to suggest that having a null password AND specifying ?nopassword? will allow someone to
authenticate with _no_ password:
?nopasword: if you want to allow all passwords, use an empty password and this field.?
Farther down, the page seems to indicate that the ?nologin? attribute is what I am looking for:
?nologin: User isn?t actually allowed to log in even if the password matches . . .?
Or possibly ?noauthenticate?:
?...
