https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=281252 Summary: Locked account created by: useradd -r -g nx -d /var/lib/nxserver/home -s /usr/bin/nxserver nx Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.2 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Security AssignedTo: security-team@suse.de ReportedBy: mvdv@spamcop.net QAContact: qa@suse.de The following arose in the course of installing FreeNX, see bug #280403. It seems that the default is to create a locked account, if this is intended behavior it isn't documented in the useradd --help or man useradd. So I'm assuming this is not intended. useradd -r -g nx -d /var/lib/nxserver/home -s /usr/bin/nxserver nx # passwd -S nx nx LK 06/03/2007 0 99999 7 -1 passwd -d nx # passwd -S nx nx NP 06/03/2007 0 99999 7 -1 Now the account functions as required by FreeNX/NX. My classification of this bug might be incorrect - but it didn't seem to be a kernel issue? Feel free to reclassify.
