lshell is a shell coded in Python, that lets you restrict a user's environment to limited sets of commands, choose to enable/disable any command over SSH (e.g. SCP, SFTP, rsync, etc.), log user's commands, implement timing restriction, and more.

Documentation: Update installation instructions in README.md #164

Your instructions below fail to point out that sudo apt-get install lshell will install an older version, 0.9.15 to be precise. So if people want the latest version, they need to download it and install it themselves.

Also, when I last did an installation, of version 0.9.16, my instructions were sudo python setup.py install . Why are there extra options now? Do I need them?

Installation:

1. Install from source
        # on Linux:
        python setup.py install --no-compile --install-scripts=/usr/bin/
        # on *BSD:
        python setup.py install --no-compile --install-data=/usr/{pkg,local}/
2. On Debian (or derivatives)
        apt-get install lshell
3.  On RHEL (or derivatives)
        yum install lshell

It would also be useful to have two more sets of instructions:

  1. how to upgrade from an earlier version (e.g. the 0.9.15 that gets installed by apt-get)
  2. how to delete lshell (in all 3 installation methods)
