Sorry to post in an old thread. But, for others who are looking for such utilities "lshell" is the thing for you, simply awesome.

These are some key features worth mentioning.

Key Features
--------------
- Logs all activities in /var/log/lshell (by default) as 20100916-'username'.log
- Customized List of allowed commands
- Restricts use of wildcards, redirection operators, pipes e.t.c.
- Timer for users
- Customized enviornment path
