As an alternative to this solution you may build / configure your own login 
shell for such users, avoiding that they have direct shell access and allowing 
them more functionality - i.e. to provide them further domain maintenance 
tasks.

By just searching around i#ve found something like "xen-shell":
http://xen-tools.org/software/xen-shell/commands.html

which may usuably directly for this - or with slight modifications to shrink 
access rights more down if required. But may be ther are others solutions / 
projects with similiar functionality?

Will give it a try byself now...


cheers,


Niels.
