useradd question

[ssaachi]

how do I create a no login userid for which a passwd is not required.
I normally add userid using
useradd -u 11111 -g 14 -d /export/home/user1 -m -s /bin/ksh -c " user1 " user1
thanks for your help

change shell to /bin/false, then it will become nologin

it looks like you want to cr8 a process user edit /etc/shadow file and keep NP at the password field.

This can be done with Solaris 8 & 9 using roles.
