Edit /etc/passwd to reflect that program as that users shell, they will
login, run that program and exit... nothing else.
If you'd like that account to be able to FTP as well, but not shell, add
that program to /etc/shells and restart the ftp server.
/etc/shells is the list of allowed shells.

Subject: Telnet login to a program?
Is there a way I can make a username to login via telnet to by machine
just to use one program, when the program quits, the connection closes?
And can this be somewhat secure, i.e. can I make it so that the user
cannot get into a shell or anyhing like that?
