I'd like to create a really restricted user on my laptop. I don't |
| 2 |
want the user to be able to do much of anything but browse the web, |
| 3 |
use skype, and maybe look at photos on a CD or something. I did this: |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
useradd -m -G users,audio,cdrom -s /sbin/nologin newuser |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
How does that look? I've noticed when adding this kind of a user in |
| 8 |
the past they are able to look at files all around the system that I'd |
| 9 |
prefer they can't. Is there a good method for restricting that? |
| 10 |
Maybe remove the users group? Is a weak password OK with this setup |
| 11 |
since there's no shell access? |
