Depending on what you're trying to achieve (and if I understand correctly), you could use a nologin file, i.e. "If the file /etc/nologin exists, login will allow access only to root. Other users will be shown the contents of this file and their logins will be politely refused." -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Ezra Taylor Sent: 14 June 2007 15:02 To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list Subject: Re: how to restrict any user for ssh Make sure you turn off other services that will allow a user to login. Such as, telnet-server and the other remote shells rsh,remsh(solaris) and rlogin. These should already be off, due to their insecure nature.
