Hello, This is to announce the release of GNU rush version 2.4.
GNU Rush is a restricted user shell, designed for sites providing limited remote access to their resources, such as, for example, source forges. Normally, it is configured as a login shell for users that are allowed limited remote access to the machine. Its flexible configuration file gives administrator complete control over the commands that users are allowed to run, the environment they will be run in, and system resources allotted for them. See end of this message for a list of noteworthy changes.

[*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the .sig suffix) is intact. First, be sure to download both the .sig file and the corresponding tarball. Then, run a command like this: gpg --verify rush-2.4.tar.gz.sig If that command fails because you don't have the required public key, or that public key has expired, try the following commands to update or refresh it, and then rerun the 'gpg --verify' command. gpg --recv-keys 79FFD94BFCE230B1 Noteworthy changes in this release: * Use getgrouplist call, if available. * Fixes in rush-po script. * Bugfixes.
