SYNOPSIS
diskhog - run a restricted shell to persuade a user to remove some files.
DESCRIPTION
diskhog is a shell script initiated for a user who has failed to
remove excess disk blocks.
It rechecks the current disk usage, and if this is still greater than the
maximum allowed, runs a restricted shell (/bin/rsh), with a PATH
set to /diskhog:/usr/diskhog.
When this shell terminates, a further check is made of the disk usage, and
if it is now acceptable, the normal login process will continue. Otherwise
the process will be repeated.
The diskhog procedure is interrupt-proof, and can only be exited by
either removing sufficient blocks, or on receipt of a SIGHUP signal
(e.g. turning the terminal off).
