Hi Geert,

Couldn't you just login remotely as someone different, and then (if needed),
su to the correct user?

That's what I do.

Cheers,

Paul Hamilton

Hi,

is it possible to have a different password for local (console, xdm) and
remote (ssh) logins?

I have a separate password database for my imap-server (dovecot), and I was
wondering whether this is possible with OpenSSH, too.
