using /usr/bin/nologin instead of /bin/false in adduser?
Hi,
in login 4.0.13, /usr/bin/nologin has appeared which seems to be a
good default choice for accounts that do not allow shell login.
I am now wondering whether (and when) I should change adduser to use
/usr/bin/nologin instead of /bin/false in the default case of disabled
login.
Are we sufficiently secure if an account with that login shell is
being logged in while /usr is not yet mounted? Is it desireable to
have adduser depend on login >= 4.0.13?
Any comments will be appreciated.
Greetings
Marc
