nologin


DESCRIPTION

     nologin displays a message that an account is not available and exits
     non-zero.  It is intended as a replacement shell field for accounts that
     have been disabled.

     If the file /etc/nologin.txt exists, nologin displays its contents to the
     user instead of the default message.
