The technique for forcing a specific command to be executed (instead of
the normal action of running a shell) was raised at the LPSG meeting
tonight.

I remembered that it was done in the authorized_keys file, but couldn't
remember the details.

The "forced commands" concept is a sizable part of chapter 8 of _the SSH
book_, and this chapter is in fact available online at:

  http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/sshtdg/chapter/ch08.html

The command="command" option of authorized_keys is also found in
  man 8 sshd

Searching on ssh "forced command" gives other hits that may be worth a look.
