Bash, if or usage
Trying to find a better way to check $REMOTE_USER against a list of permiited users. The only way I can get it to work is to do a bunch of or statements shown here. My list of permitted users will be a dozen or so, I was hoping to list them in a variable or a file.
Code:
if [ $REMOTE_USER = "aa1234" ] || [ $REMOTE_USER = "zc1819" ] ; then
(Load this page) removed the details of this page load
else
echo "You do not have permission to view this page";
exit;
fi

virt-login-shell

VIRT-LOGIN-SHELL(1)					      Virtualization Support					       VIRT-LOGIN-SHELL(1)

NAME

       virt-login-shell - tool to execute a shell within a container matching the users name

SYNOPSIS

       virt-login-shell

DESCRIPTION

       The virt-login-shell program is a setuid shell that is used to join an LXC container that matches the user's name.  If the container is not
       running, virt-login-shell will attempt to start the container.  virt-sandbox-shell is not allowed to be run by root.  Normal users will get
       added to a container that matches their username, if it exists, and they are configured in /etc/libvirt/virt-login-shell.conf.

       The basic structure of most virt-login-shell usage is:

	 virt-login-shell

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
	   Display command line help usage then exit.

       -V, --version
	   Display version information then exit.

CONFIG

       By default, virt-login-shell will execute the /bin/sh program for the user.  You can modify this behaviour by defining the shell variable
       in /etc/libvirt/virt-login-shell.conf.

       eg.  shell = [ "/bin/ksh", "--login"]

       By default no users are allowed to use virt-login-shell, if you want to allow certain users to use virt-login-shell, you need to modify the
       allowed_users variable in /etc/libvirt/virt-login-shell.conf.

       eg. allowed_users = [ "tom", "dick", "harry" ]
