    Hello everyone, I couldn't find any documentation on this issue.

    What I want is to restrict one user's account to only be able to ssh in from
    a certain IP. That way, if someone got her password/passphrase, they
    wouldn't be able to access the server from any other location.

    Any suggestions, or directions that I can look in would be great.
