I've installed portage on tiger and now portage user appear me on system login.
But if I go to account there is no portage user.

How can I remove portage from login list?

i'm having the same problem. i did a `grep -R portage /etc/*` to try to find an entry somewhere, but couldn't find anything. i'm not sure if OS X uses /etc/passwd anymore (there's an /etc/master.passwd as well).

anyone have any ideas?

i can't take credit for this, i found it on discussions.info.apple.com but i tweaked what they said to be a little more reasonable.

Run /Applications/Utilities/NetInfo Manager. Go to users in the first list box. Find portage. in the directory menu, choose New Property (or use <Command>+<Shift>+N) and add the properties shell with the value /bin/false and home with the value /dev/null

i used the postfix user as a template and added passwd, realname, etc as well. the guys at discussions.info.apple.com suggested just deleting the whole user entry, but i'd like to think its there for a reason.

hope that helps.

shell must be /usr/bin/false because /bin/false does not exists.

Solved :P

Tnx a lot
