[SOLVED] Needed to be $HOME/.bashrc disabled when user shell is 'rbash' (restricted shell)

MACHINE: HP Proliant DL260G5
OS: SLES 11 SP1
kernel: Linux xserver 2.6.32.12-0.7-default #1 SMP 2010-05-20 11:14:20 +0200 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

It is used as remote xserver in a LAN.

I have configured /usr/lib/restricted/bin/.rbashrc with some environment variables but when the users logon in the system finally is executed $HOME/.bashrc and some environment vars are overwritten.

Are there any possibility to disable de $HOME/.bashrc in /etc/profile or /etc/bash.bashrc or ...

Thnxs.

How about the "--norc" option?

Thanks MTK358, but I don't know how to put parameters in /etc/passwd shell assigment.
And if the user user .bash_profile can execute .bahrc from there and if I put --noprofile, no general environment vars are loaded.
I have preferred to create a special home for users without some privileges, isn't the best solution in my scenario but works for me.

Bye.
