Hi,

Most of my users connect through PPP, and get authenticate from a
radius server on a BSDI machien. In order for the users to be
authenticate from the BSDI machine, they need an account on that
machine, but by creating an account on the BSDI machine they can
access the BSDI machine which I don't want. So I would like to create
a "false shell", so that once logged into the BSDI machine itcloses
the session. Does anybody knows how to do it?

I will appreciate any help.

Thanks,

Tom
