<snip> Ok, I'm assuming you only want users who have this shell to only be able to access certian things, run only a limited set of commands? If thats the case, then you'd be best to setup a chroot jail. That way they can't breakout (unless they are root). Personally, a chroot jail is the only thing I trust when I need to setup an isolated or restricted environment. Its difficult to break out of a chroot jail even when you are root, but it can be done. So ensure they can't get root. :) Nick -- Nick Clifford M2 Technology Ltd Phone +64 9 444 8307 ext 260 Fax +64 9 444 8315 Email [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web http://www.m2tech.co.nz/ Confidentiality: This e-mail is from M2 Technology Limited.
