Subject: [SM-Commit] su problem


Since the change of provider for su, I have noticed that one of my init 
scripts fails.
 
The script does
 FB=/usr/firebird/bin/fbmgr.bin
RUND=/var/run/firebird
PID=$RUND/`basename $0`.pid

                echo "Starting Firebird Super Server"
                mkdir -p $RUND
                chown firebird:firebird $RUND
                su -l "firebird" -s /bin/sh -m \
                       -c "$FB -start -forever -pidfile $PID"
                evaluate_retval



 
 
 The relevant entry in /etc/passwd is
 firebird:x:84:84::/var/run/firebird:/bin/false
 
Any suggestions?
It worked previously.
