Linux Login Restrictions

Locked

by dwadejr · about 15 years, 9 months ago

I need to find out how to specify which users can log in to a specific pc on a Suse Linux domain. I have one computer that I only want to allow 3 specific users to log in to–all others that try should not be able to. The client PC runs Win2k. Is this possible and how do I set this up?
