Re: Privilege separation user nobody does not exist
Reply #1 –
here's my nobody line:
# cat /etc/passwd | grep nobo
nobody:x:99:99:nobody:/:/usr/bin/nologin
You could probably add that or
useradd nobody -d /somedir -s /usr/bin/nologin
or any variation of it.
I migrated from arch and I inherited that nobody setup.
There's also a chance this is related to a setuid/setgid call that sshd might be making on startup (nobody's user ID being not what it might expect)
