Hi,
As Gentoo/FreeBSD is always improving, I'm thinking is just the case of
telling everyone how to correctly use enewuser without bailing out
Gentoo/FreeBSD :)
enewuser is often used with /bin/false as shell to create an user who can't
login. Unfortunately this doesn't work on Gentoo/FreeBSD (and AFAIK also
Gentoo/OSX has its own problem).
To avoid this, please pass -1 as option for shell to create a no-login
account, which is then expanded to the right shell for the right system.
Thanks again,
