Hi All,
I am confused about users. IIRC, ftp users are just ordinary users on the system (/etc/passwd)
Is there an add user wizard from the command-line?
Quick way is typically: adduser <username> passwd <username>
actually, useradd is the proper command. adduser is a alias
I dont quite get all of the steps to add a user, dont let login except FTP, etc, etc
Here I would run: chsh <username>
and set it to something like /sbin/nologin or /dev/null, this will
or...
useradd -s /sbin/nologin username passwd username
and do it in one pass
