Somebody posted a no-login shell a few months ago, that only allowed 
scp and sftp, and for anything else printed a "Go away" message followed 
by a "sleep 10". I don't remember offhand which list it was announced on, 
and unfortunately the machine I used to use for my email now has a fried 
motherboard, so I can't check my mail archives until I can afford to 
replace it.
