That might be a problem. Add one.

All it needs to do is list, one per line, all the valid shells of your
users.

So if you use sh, csh, tcsh, and bash, it should be something like:

/bin/sh
/bin/csh
/bin/tcsh
/bin/bash

The idea is that anyone whose shell is NOT listed here will not be
permitted to log in via appletalk. So that you can make someone's shell
/usr/local/bin/we_locked_your_account_because_you_were_stealing_message
(which would print out a message explaining why a user was loged out) and
they couldn't use appleshare to get in.

Take care,

Bill
