Is it possible to create an email-only user in fedora linux?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



So, I am setting up some forum software on a VPS server I have rented
and would like to invite users to have access to the forum *and* an
email account, but nothing else.

I have dovecot set up, and make roundcube available as the web-based
mail client.

The only thing I know to do is to add them as a user, which basically
gives them a shell, and I'm not enthusiastic about that.

The only thing I know about is putting in a bashrc that limits their
PATH to their own /home/<user>/bin file for executables, and then
adding only the executables I want them to have.  So, I guess I could
do that, and just put nothing in the /home/<user>/bin file.

Is there a better way to do this?

Thanks,

billo
