I plan on having 2 registered users only for my joomla site. In the login section, I want to remove the capability for new users to register/or any user to reset password/retreive password.

Is there a way I can configure this?
If not, is there a way to add a captcha security feature?In the past I have had a lot of spam emails
from unprotected forms.

Thanks!,
vidya

In the Global Configuration, you can set the parameter Allow User Registration to No. This will prevent from the Register option from showing.

As for as password resetting is concerned,

(a) if you are using the login module, you can edit the file default.php located in the directory \modules\mod_login\tmpl to remove the forgot username and password forgot options.

(b) if you are using the login menu item, you can edit the file default_login.php located in the directory \components\com_user\views\login\tmpl to remove the forgot username and password forgot options.

As you will be changing the core Joomla! files, it is recommended that you follow the override technique as documented at http://docs.joomla.org/How_to_override_the_output_from_the_Joomla!_core.
