Zero privileged user

[jonmon6691]

I need to make an account that has verry little to no write priviledges, or any priviledges for that matter, this user will only be logging in through ssh and ftp.

I was thinking for the ssh, b/c i only need tunnling, i could set the default shell to something that dowsnt do anything but stays open so that the user couldnt run anything but they can still do stuff via ftp.

so i guess what im asking is: In Ubuntu 6.06 and 6.10, is there a way to make an extremly under priviledged user, no sudo no write, barely any read.

use the group priveledges and/or set the the ssh account to that new group that has limited access

for ftp, that gets setup thru the ftp config file, its separate

ok i got the ftp done, but if im using ubuntu how do i set the group permisions, i have their permisions set so that none of the boxes are checked
