When providing a shell environment for a larger number of users, what is

I am not sure a restricted shell is the best sollution for interactive setups, but one is availale from src/contrib/sendmail/smrsh. See README for usage and build information. This, however, is more a thing for cvs-wrappers or stuff like that.


For interactive environments you can use the normal group/user permissions and of course jail(8)s.



Thanks, I'll look at that. To allow retricted access using groups/users, is the normal procedure to remote o+rwx permissions from the selected commands/directories? Hmm. I thought the kernel secure level setting which helped restrict users. I've much to learn.
