Maybe I'm missing something, no access to a unix right now, but how about the ssh option for a command?, the ssh manpage says If command is specified, it is executed on the remote host instead of a login shell. and When the user's identity has been accepted by the server, the server ei- ther executes the given command, or logs into the machine and gives the user a normal shell on the remote machine. maybe with an .authorized_keys file, you could invoke /bin/sh directly. ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] '/bin/sh' auth may still deny it, the login shell not-existing, but its worth a shot...
