Set their shell to /sbin/nologin instead of /bin/bash Using /sbin/nologin vs. /bin/false retains FTP functionality since /sbin/nologin is considered a valid shell for FTP daemons which require this functionality. See /etc/shells for the listing (as of RH 8.0). usermod -s /sbin/nologin <user> should do the trick. You can also be brave and use vipw and manually change it with vi.
