you can set the shell of the user /usr/bin/passwd then they will get the pasword command only! or you can set it to /usr/local/bin/pine for them to get pine command... well also you can make a simple menu system... and put into /usr/local/bin /usr/local/bin/menu then you can put the user to have choices but be careful that the user is not able to drop to shell with any commands :) also you can make a web interface for changing passwords (we have one here) then you can restrict users from telnet at all any questions? +--------------------------------------------------------+ | Name : Evren Yurtesen - yurtesen@ispro.net.tr | | S-mail: Mithatpasa Cad.
