Yup, hand out "/bin/false" as shell and add that to /etc/shells (perhaps
depending on the ftp server in use? anyone for an ftp server with
virtual users?)
There's also "/bin/true" which supposedly adds some functionality, but I
don't really feel like searching the archives right now.

Oh, got it already (gotta love Google ;-):

No big advantage, then.

HTH... Nico
