Hiya all,

Just in the process of beefing up security around here, so I decided 
that FTP users don't need shell access. So I edited the password 
databse and set their shell to /nonexistent and the /sbin/nologin 

After that they are refused FTP access...... Is there anyway I can stop 
users from having shell access jyst because they have an FTP account?


Thank in advance......
