Automatic class change
Hello!
I have 5 servers running FreeBSD (6.0 - 7.0) and on each server I have about 800 user accounts. I created a new class in /etc/login.conf and now I want to change the class for each user. Do you have any ideea on how may I do this automaticaly? It is a little bit too much for me to use chsh for each user

Hi all,
Suppose I have a script under user A, which calls a script under user B (this script should be run using user B). How can I change the user (along with supplying the password) automatically in the script (a command similar to su)?
Thank you in advance

Hi,
I believe the next code is wrong:
class Egg {
Egg e;
int i;
Egg(int ii=0) : i(ii) {}
};
because you would end up with an endless definition (memory allocation) of Egg objects, thus int i.
Ok, so God Eckel proposes for a singleton:
class Egg {
static Egg e;

CHSH(1) User Commands CHSH(1)
NAME
chsh - change login shell
SYNOPSIS
chsh [options] [LOGIN]
DESCRIPTION
The chsh command changes the user login shell. This determines the name of the user's initial login command. A normal user may only change
the login shell for her own account; the superuser may change the login shell for any account.
OPTIONS
The options which apply to the chsh command are:
-h, --help
Display help message and exit.
-R, --root CHROOT_DIR
Apply changes in the CHROOT_DIR directory and use the configuration files from the CHROOT_DIR directory.
-s, --shell SHELL
The name of the user's new login shell. Setting this field to blank causes the system to select the default login shell.
If the -s option is not selected, chsh operates in an interactive fashion, prompting the user with the current login shell. Enter the new
value to change the shell, or leave the line blank to use the current one. The current shell is displayed between a pair of [ ] marks.
NOTE
The only restriction placed on the login shell is that the command name must be listed in /etc/shells, unless the invoker is the superuser,
and then any value may be added. An account with a restricted login shell may not change her login shell. For this reason, placing /bin/rsh
in /etc/shells is discouraged since accidentally changing to a restricted shell would prevent the user from ever changing her login shell
back to its original value.
FILES
/etc/passwd
User account information.
/etc/shells
List of valid login shells.
/etc/login.defs
Shadow password suite configuration.
SEE ALSO
chfn(1), login.defs(5), passwd(5).
