Hi all, As some of us may have noticed, sshd(8) has ignored nologin(5) in its default configuration since it was PAM-ified. That is a pain to admins of multi-user systems as they have to resort to drastic means such as killing the sshd master process when they need to disable user logins temporarily. I'm about to MFC a fix for this problem to RELENG_6 in the hope that nobody relies on the bug, i.e., no one uses nologin(5) to prevent all logins into the system but those via sshd(8), because doing so would be a really poor idea. -- Yar
