(You might have to inform your > ssh client whether to grab a pty or not.) Just modify the users shell in /etc/passwd to the program you want to run. You might have to also add the entry for your program to /etc/shells or similar file showing your program as a valid "shell". When the program exits, the user is disconnected. Also, beware that your distro might have a tool used to edit the passwd, if it does, you should use that. HTH ~k
