Using 'ForceCommand' Option

So I probably shouldn't have said "arbitrary" script. What I really want to
do is to present a terms of service notice (/etc/issue). But I also want to
get the user to actually confirm (by typing 'y') that they accept. If they
try to exit or type anything other than 'y' they will be denied access. I'm
not sure a user can interact with a script being executed by PAM. Also, I
want to differentiate for SCP. It looks like OpenSSH will pass
SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND variable to the script so I can use that in the script
logic and not enforce input for SCP and/or SFTP. So it would seem to be
what I want. I found an example on the interwebs with something similar and
I built my script similarly but I can't seem to get any output. I guess I
was looking for help deciphering that DEBUG output.
