Howdy y'all. I have what (should be) a quick question. I want to restrict a
certain users access to just reading news. No more than that. I use the nn
news reader. I have tried defining his login shell to the nn binary,
but the problem comes with terminal emulations. I need to be able to
setenv TERM vt100 (or the equivalent) before he can use nn...then when
he quits nn, it should log him off...any suggestions?
