Another "VMS can do it, can Unix?" type question... Under VMS I can limit
interactive logins with a command (set login/inter=0). Commonly used when I
want the system to myself, like during backups. One feature of this is that
it prevents normal users from logging in but still allows members of the
system group (based on group UIC) interactive logins. Can I do something
similar under DEC Unix? I know of the function of /etc/nologin but that
seems to stop root login as well.
