Hide menu items from user

Installing and Using OpenWrt
1

Hello,

I try to add a "Tech" user and hide some menu items from it so it only has access to some functions. I added a new menu item (that works) and would like that the Tech user only has access to the new menu, and not to the "System" and "Network" menu items.

I added a new user by adding following lines to the files:

/etc/shadow 	 	tech::0:0:99999:7:::
/etc/passwd			tech:x:1000:1000:tech:/root:/bin/false
/etc/group 			tech:x:1000:
/etc/config/rpcd	config login
					option username 'tech'
					option password '$p$tech'
					list read '*'

The System log shows "luci: accepted login on / for tech from myIP", so I guess adding a new user worked correct.

How do I hide/disable the menu items for the Tech user? Could someone please point me in the right direction? Any help is very much appreciated.

Thanks very much!
