How can I add shells to the list of allowed ones on Solaris 7? I can't find
this in answerbook2, and even though Solaris install put other shells on my
system, they don't seem to be allowed. So, about home directories again. A
path named /export/home exists, and has huge ammounts of space available.
I'm assuming this is where Solaris expects home directories to go, but it
doesn't do a very good job of it. I've created a directory there, for my
user, and changed it so that it's owned by gleblanc (my user) and other.
I'm not sure what permissions this should have as a home directory, so that
might be why it's not working. I'm just find with putting user's home
directories here, but I'd like the useradd command to create the proper
directory (/export/home/username) and set the permissions (which should be
what?) and to put the proper entries into /etc/passwd. How can I get it to
do that? Thanks for all your help,
Greg
