Re: How to limit new user accessing other files?

In order to give a good answer, we have to know what you do
want to let them do.  if you don't want them to have a shell
at all, then change their shell to:
/sbin/nologin

if your system does not have that, then set it to:
/bin/false

here is the command from useradd:
useradd -s /sbin/nologin
