Some of them say "NOLOGIN" and some of them don't.
Can I change those that does not say NOLOGIN to NOLOGIN? If I do it, may that break something?
I do not want those user to be able to login...
What are my options??
Thank you!!!

Re: USER - NOLOGIN
when you specify "*", no password is set and the user is asked to change the password at first logon.
When you set it to "nologin" it doesn't match any password the user knows.
It's the same result as changing the user password without telling him (user unable to login) .
but when using the "nologin" it's a reminder this user is not supposed to login, untill you (re)set his password.

Re: USER - NOLOGIN
You'll surely break something :-(
The accounts should not be allowed interactive login because no shell (last parameter) is specified for those accounts.

Re: USER - NOLOGIN
the "ftp" account is not a standard Tru64 system account.
possibly it is created by a previous administrator?
the procedure in the link you refer to looks reasonable enough to try.
you won't "break the system", but only affect those users that use this "ftp" account.
