Re: Useradd command/Encrypted Putty Session (SSH Client)

Forgive me if this question is too mediocre for this list but my 
question involved a secure session spanning from putty to our leaf 6x box.

Is there a way to:

A: Create  a limited non-root user in leaf

B: Create a open port for an RDP session to a terminal server(I got this 
portion, but just wanted to mention it as a point of reference!)

C: *The big one* Limit the user and/or putty session so the connecting 
user can't make any changes to the firewall.

I'm trying to create something similar to a VPN client. Unless you 
awesome individuals can offer a better tool for what I'm trying to 
do.....? :-)

In advanced thanks so much!
