Yes its all done now:) and it works great.... although the user doesnt see the nice
"go away" message... they just get
login: no shell: access denied but i can live with that (for now:)) i had the
./:/bin in the wrong location giving access to /
and a few permissions were wrong.... its all working well now and again many thanks
for the dejanews link.. looks like it will come in handy indeed:) My next quest is
to run X from a telnet session so im off to do some more reading:)
thanks DJ
