      Hello Shawn!              23 May 17 05:19, you wrote to mark lewis:               SH> I haven't tried creating a new account via ssh, but I would assume        SH> that won't work due to the nature of ssh.              Correct. The bbs account (used for new user registration) does not have a        password, and therefore cannot be logged into via SSH.              In theory one could add a password to that account, but then you would need a        method to distribute the password to potential new users.              Andrew              --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5-b20170303        * Origin: Phoenix BBS * phoenix.bnbbbs.net (1:320/219)    |
