rbash seems to go out of its way to make life hard for someone - no ability
to execute `cd' or `alias' at all, that sort of thing. It's not a lot of
use if you want a complete chroot()ed environment with ability to do
whatever they like within it; it's normally more useful to be able to
organize your files into directories which rbash doesn't exactly help with.
