If you give them shell access to put up web pages, worrying about their being able to start an xterm this way versus another seems nonsensical to me. I don't actually see why "shell access" is necessary for putting up web pages. Why not let them ftp to their web page directories, but restrict their home directories (if they have one)?
How about this: we dont give users shell access to our web servers, however, in order for their pages to be served, user home directories are NFS mounted to the web server from a machine where they do have shell access. ---[ robobob () xmission com ]--------------[ XMission Internet Access ]---
