Does anyone have an easy way to disable SSH access for all users that currently have it enabled whether it be regular SSH or jailed SSH? Changing them individually via "Manage Shell Access" is a bit ridiculous when your talking about thousands of accounts.

Try:

Code:
for i in `ls -A /var/cpanel/users`; do usermod -s /usr/local/cpanel/bin/noshell $i; done
I haven't tested this, so proceed at your own risk.

Basically this should find a list of all your cpanel users from /var/cpanel/users and then change the shell for all users to /usr/local/cpanel/bin/noshell. It should work, but again, I haven't tested it.
