As you probably know, there's no chroot jail for ssh on the RaQ
boxes. Even though I don't have very many shell accounts around, I
did need to have a few. Instead of enabling shell accounts for
entire domains, I manually edited the appropriate user records in
/etc/passwd to change their shell to bash. I did this because I
didn't want site administrators to be giving out any additional shell
accounts.
How can I accomplish the same effect on a RaQ550 given that the
equivalent of /etc/passwd is /var/db/passwd.db ? Is there some kind
of program kicking around that I can use to edit the db file manually?
Thanks,
Michelle
