All the so-called `restricted' shells on other systems give admins a false confidence; they usually could be bypassed by a hacker in (depending on the line speed) less than 5 minutes. I'm not sure if you'd like it still... The only safe environment for such a case is setting up a chroot environment. It's a bit more work, but you can have a better feeling after you're done. :-) -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
