SUMMARY: Using netgroup with local passwd file

• Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] [ attachment ]

Hi fellow managers,

This list is great, as always. Yesterday I posted a message about how to
use -@bad-users in the local passwd to exclude "bad-users". I received
a total of seven replies so far. Almost all gave correct answers to my
problem. The most complete reply came from Mr T Crummey
<tom@sees.bangor.ac.uk>, thanks, Tom! Basically, The correct way is
        -@bad-users::0:0:::
        +:
or
        -@bad-users::0:0:::
        +::0:0:::

NOT just (as what I did)
        -@bad-users
        +:
        
Thanks for the following people:

nicky@davinci.concordia.ca
storm@geog.utah.edu
jay@silence.princeton.nj.us
