i have a question, i need to have user nobody running some lam sessions
however i will not give a shell to that user, its a foolish idea, but have
got a program that i have suid'd to nobody that starts lamboot, but i cant
get it to start lamboot lamhosts as there is no shell for nobody to
login to so is there a way to get existing lam processes to tie into
each other with no shell

basically im looking to run something like apache (system service) but im
not going to compromise my boxes security to do it.

thanks for your time
