Hi, I'm looking for a way to securely transfer files between machines using either scp or sftp without giving the user a login shell on the target machine. Put in another way: The user should be able to transfer files but must not have an interactive login shell on the target box. Giving the user a shell of "/bin/true" or something similar on the target machine is not an option since scp doesn't seem to work in this case. Any ideas how this could be accomplished? Thanks in advance for your help, -ewald
