I need to allow a user to login to ftp but not login in an other way.  =
Does anybody know how I can do this.  I was told to change the shell to =
some file such as /dev/null so the user would have no shell to login to. =
 I changed the /etc/passwd file to do this.  When I try to login I was =
still able to login., do I need to change any other files?
Or is there a different way to keep  a user  from only login in as a ftp =
client.  ?=20

Thanks=20
