I've got a few questions about securing my computer, 'cause I let a few people have access via ssh and right now they have a little too much freedom :D

first, how can I make it so that only the user who mounts a drive can read it? I did know this once, but I can't remember now.

second, is there any way to stop certain users (i.e. those not in a certain group) from running certain commands? I don't really wanna chgrp / chmod them, 'cause I'll never remember which commands I've messed with and which I haven't...so I'm hoping there's a better way.

third, how can I stop users seeing other users' processes (ie in top)? I've seen this done on a shell provider, but I can't figure out how to do it myself. I asked the shell provider, and he just said "it's a kernel thing", which doesn't help me.

I think that's everything (for now :D)
