Hi,

Thanks to everyone who responded.   I did cut the shell script in my first
message short to avoid posting too much to the list.

The user's shell is set to this wrapper script in /etc/passwd.

SCP fails with a usage message when running to this shell.   interactive login
(ssh), and sftp though are okay.

The script is type #!/bin/sh, running on RHEL3, which I believe is actually bash
running in a compatability mode.

the if statement is actually :

if /bin/grep -qw ^$LOGNAME $ALLOWFILE >/dev/null 2>/dev/null

end the exec line is :
    exec -a - $REALSHELL $*

I'll try changing the exec line to use "$@" instead of $* and report back.


Cheers

Graeme
