Advice: HOW to give users least possible privileges ?

Hi Managers,

I have given access to a machine inside our LAN using
the SSH port forwarding trick, I use a Solaris 8 box as the SSH reverse
proxy.

When users log in they have rksh so that they don't peep everywhere.

I am not completely satisfied with rksh and I would like to setup users
accounts
with even less privileges, the best would be allowing them to login but
they would have no shell.

Has anyone done that before ?

Additional question:
How to suppress the message when you login:
Sun Microsystems Inc. SunOS 5.8 Generic Patch October 2001

Thanks in advance.

Vincent
