Hi all,
I found out a way to restrict the user in many ways..
you just need to include pam_limit module in the login file and set the limits in the
file /etc/security/limits.conf
Its work great... it stops user to bring down the system
with programme like while(1)fork();
It don't even require to do any thing with the bash or other programme...
If i am wrong some where plz do correct me and let me know..
Thanks all for the suggestions..

The rsh does not allow cd, >> and ./ may other thing. You can put all binary
in one directory and put that in user path. The user will not be able to
move any where else.
You can set all the quota and limits for the user. I feel for such
requirement ksh is much better.
