Explanation:
From http://docstore.mik.ua/orelly/networking_2ndEd/ssh/ch05_06.htm#ch05-42-fm2xml:
If the file /etc/nologin exists, sshd allows only root to log in; no other accounts are allowed access. Thus, touch /etc/nologin is a quick way to restrict access to the system administrator only, without having to reconfigure or shut down SSH.
