That's the hard part. :)

If you want that to be easier you could do like this:

This example is for wheel mouse (3 buttons + wheel)

In /etc/X11/XF86Config* set the mouse button count one higher than the 
real button count

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Mouse0"
        Driver      "mouse"
        Option      "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
        Option      "Device" "/dev/mouse"
        Option      "Buttons" "6"           # Here
        Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"    # Wheel mapping
EndSection

Then issuing this command will disable the right mouse button.

modmap -e "pointer = 1 2 6 4 5 3"

You get it back using this command

modmap -e "pointer = 1 2 3 4 5 6"

If you want this to be automatic for certain users you can add the 
quoted expression to your .Xmodmap file or in the global one some where 
under /etc/X11/.
