Under the section Login Process, subsection 3--in the sshd.8 man page
(src/crypto/openssh/sshd.8)--is incorrect.
It reads:
3. Checks /etc/nologin and /var/run/nologin; if one exists, it
prints the contents and quits (unless root).
However this is not the behavior of sshd, it only checks
/var/run/nologin. I believe OpenSSH defaults to /etc/nologin, but it
modified when merged into FreeBSD to use FreeBSD's existing nologin
setup, which uses /var/run/nologin and not /etc/nologin.
