Okay, Okay, Once and for all, this is how it is done:
1) Create netgroups (in /etc/netgroup), including the users list
for each workstation. e.g.:
ws1_users \
(,jenny,) \
(,jim,)
ws2_users \
(,jack,) \
(,greg,)
etc.. (of course, you may use any valid combination of previously defined
groups, etc.)
2) the password file of each workstation, should include all non humans and
an entry of the form
+ at ws?_users:
and that's all. This will allow only users of group ws?_users to acess that
workstation.
There are some improuvments to this basic scheme that may come to mind, but
this is the basic idea.
Cheers,
