If I'm a web server, for which accounts can I turn off shells within passwd file?
- by eric01
I am making a web server running LAMP and want to access it using SSH.
When I open the passwd file, I see all those accounts and I want to know for which ones I can put false. I have the following accounts:
root, daemon, bin, sys, sync, games, man, lp, mail, news, uucp, proxy, www-data
backup, list, irc, gnats, nobody, libuuid, syslog, messagebus, whoopsie,
mandscape, sshd, eric
Except root, sshd and eric, which ones should I not disable?
How about www-data and sshd?
Thanks a lot for your help.
