If you don't have /etc/users try/etc/passwd

Check the shell of the xymon user. If you’re not sure how to do that: grep xymon /etc/users. The last field should be the shell. It’s likely set to nologin or some such. SU has a command line switch to specify a shell, that would be the easiest and most secure way to work around it.

I am trying to set up monitoring for about 2,000 servers, and unfortunately, it is going to take a while to get a port open, so I want to use rclient via ssh.
Normally I would su into the xymon user, create the ssh keys and push them out. On this new server via terabith rpms ( RHEL 6.6 ), I get
su - xymon
This account is currently not available.
What is a workaround for this so that I can use rclient ?
Thanks !
