restricting user access: msg#00001

Subject: restricting user access
Dear all,

Tried to find the answer Googling, half did just a bit stuck.

I've set up an account on my server (Debian Sarge) for a work colleague who is far more knowledgable than I (well a Windows user) who use to be a sysadmin ish for a company. I don't want him poking about.

What I would like to do is:

1. restrict his access once logged in via SSH to /home/user (found this explanation)
http://www.felipecruz.com/blog_restricte-linux-users-to-their-home.php

It advises about using bash2, I've looked in /bin and I appear to have rbash but not bash2

I've tried apt-get install bash2, but it advises no package found, which repository would this be in?

2.- restrict his disk space

Also I want to add his static IP to my SSH config.

Ohh and apologies finally, I only have the below in sources.list:

deb http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free

I know I need the security one, but I am unsure what it is.

Any pointers appreciated.

Many thanks for your time all.

Daniel Botting
