  Description     : GNU Rush is a Restricted User Shell. It is intended for use 
with ssh, rsh and similar remote access programs.

GNU Rush is a Restricted User Shell, designed for sites providing limited 
remote access to their resources, such as, for example, savannah.gnu.org. 
Its main program, rush, is configured as a user login shell for users that are 
allowed only remote access to the machine. Using a flexible 
configuration file, GNU Rush gives administrator complete control over the 
command lines that users execute, and allows to tune the usage of system 
resources, such as virtual memory, CPU time, etc. on a per-user basis.

In particular, GNU Rush allows to run remote programs in a chrooted 
environment, which helps tighten security when offering access over such 
programs 
as sftp-server or scp, that access the entire file system by default.

Another important feature of rush is notification. It allows to notify another 
processes via an INET or UNIX socket about termination of the user 
session.

All accesses via rush are monitored. GNU Rush includes two programs that help 
visualize the history of accesses: rushwho, which displays the list of 
currently logged in users, and rushlast, which shows the history of accesses. 
The output format of both utilities is configurable.
