Create a /usr/local/bin/rbash script containing the following lines:
#!/usr/local/bin/bash
exec /usr/local/bin/bash --login --restricted "$@"
The initial #! line is necessary, in my opinion, because having it there
means you don't need to depend on the fact that shell scripts do accept
options on the #! line.
Set the permissions and owner of the new script and add it to /etc/shells:
% chmod 0555 /usr/local/bin/rbash
% chown root:wheel /usr/local/bin/rbash
% echo '/usr/local/bin/rbash' >> /etc/shells
Than you should be able to use '/usr/local/bin/rbash' as the login shell
of a user and have the user restricted in the HOME directory.
