ftp and shell access

[Raul A. Gallegos]

This is almost correct.  Create a new login shell for example /bin/false  in
/bin/false put the commands:

#!/bin/bash
echo "no shell access available."
logout

Now add /bin/false to the list of possible shells in /etc/shells and when
you create the new account give it a shell of /bin/false.
NOw they can access ftp only but not log into any shell.
