No Shell
Hi,
I have an issue that i have never come across before. I have 1 user on a server who cannot login. When they connect using Putty and put in the login id and password the session is terminated. It is as if they had /usr/bin/false in /etc/passwd but they dont. This is the password entry;
wrops3ixIRQI1gw4.:8101:154:Ops,,,:/home/wrops:/usr/bin/sh
Also, if i try to su to this user i get a reply
su: No shell
Memory fault
This is only happening with this one user and i wonder if anyone has come across this before and might have some ideas on where to look??
