For various reasons, we've had to disable accounts. Some for weak passwords,
some for security vulnerabilities, or myriad other reasons. If an account
is sorried, once you've made sure the original problem
has been resolved (you can check User_Info
via check)
you can unsorry
their account and let them log in again.
unsorry
will remove the user from the sorry group, re-enable a login shell,
and generally allow them to use their account again. Occasionally more
than simply unsorry
may be necessary depending on changes in the
infrastructure.
unsorry
should be run on supernova.
$ sudo unsorry username
It may also be necessary to run nscd -i passwd
on tsunami
.
Make sure to document all sorry
ing and unsorry
ing using note
