Re: Adding menu options

[Pete Helgren <pete@xxxxxxxxxx>]

 Brian,

I *think* the LMTCPB *YES means that they can't execute *any* command 
line stuff which is what I am after.  I can change their passwords one 
by one but they would have to tell me what the new password is.  Plus 
they have a few hundred users and it would take a while.

Thanks for the suggestion though.
