Topic: Login Services

[Matthew Montano]

Below is straight from the screen, after attempting to login with a non-root/admin account. For the life of me, I can't find a the config point (or any documentation on this.) And I've played with nearly every config options from the "Remote Access" panel

Mitel Networks SME Server

Standard user login services have been disabled.

Type "end" and press ENTER to terminate this connection:

Matthew,

Regular users don't get a shell at login by default. Take a look at /etc/passwd (/bin/false)

Justin.

search the forums for chsh

If you really want to give users shell access then logon as root and.....

chsh -s /bin/bash username

they will need to SU if they want to do anything rootish

to remove access:

chsh -s /bin/sshell username

[Matthew Montano]

Thank you to all.

Seemingly obvious and right under my nose.

Matthew

but how do you change e-smith so that when a user is created that it automatically ahs shell access?
