    Thanks to all for chiming in on this one.

    I haven't had much luck with the /etc/login.access method. -- thanks
    Scott for reminding me -- It might have something to do with NIS(?), but
    it seems to be ignored (maybe because NIS groups aren't accessed by this
    method?).

    The myriad of shell ideas are interesting, but would need to be
    propagated to all machines on the network... this is do-able. I like
    the idea of writing a small script (thanks Walter) to send a little
    message to the user.

    Wasn't there some security issue around using a script as the default
    shell.... especially since one invokes a shell to make this work?
