A simple "my box doesn't work the way I expected it" is far from being helpful. How did they log in? ...using which services? Are these services expected to run on your system? How is authentication and authorization done on your system? What shall said users be allowed to do, what not? Is it enough to place /bin/true or /bin/false as login shell? ...and most important: why do you ask this on amd64 mailing list? Is this problem amd64 specific? If not, maybe a different list would be more supportive for you...
