Sure, Select the user account that you want and do a: chsh -s /PATH/TO/COMMAND USER Where "/PATH/TO/COMMAND" is the program you want executed and "USER" is the user account. I use this to set users to only be able to open a mail program, or on a dedicated system (account software or some such) where only one thing is ever needed. I wouldn't use this for rsync. For that, I would use a cron job and rsync over ssh to backup things. -- Eric Womack Grimoire Guru - KDE http://www.sourcemage.org --- pub 1024D/1B5C6D58 2003-02-14 Eric Womack (http://www.sourcemage.org) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Key fingerprint = 2838 866A E5F9 1719 05CC 8BF3 99AE 101B 1B5C 6D58 sub 1024g/2C8B97C3 2003-02-14 Public Key: http://www.sourcemage.com/Eric.pgp --- A good soldier is not violent.
