Ahh.....got to know what exactly you want. The best thing is to make the
user use restricted bash - rbash.
To do this, edit the /etc/passwd file.
If the user name is "test", then you might have line like this in
/etc/passwd:
test:x:503:503:test:/home/test:/bin/bash
Now change it to: test:x:503:503:test:/home/test:/bin/rbash # (Note the
rbash here instead of bash)
This will give the user a restricted shell from the next time he does a
login. It will not even allow the user to use a "/" in the command line.
For example, if the user does -> test$ cd /etc --> This will say "Error: cd
restricted"
