Hm ... restricted shell ... I am afraid that's not what they want to have.
My problem is that, on one hand, my customers (all other people of my
institute) do not want the whole stuff too complicate.
On the other hand, I don't want someone who got somehow into the system
easy to screw up my network. My problem is not the "normal" user, but some
script kiddies which got a password by installing a patched ssh-client on
an untrusted host.
