    Hi,

    The best way I've found to do this (with openssh) is to use rssh
    (http://www.pizzashack.org/rssh/index.shtml) as login shell. It's
    possible to restrict ssh to scp or/and sftp.
    rssh also makes easy to have a chroot jail for scp/sftp users (common
    jail for all users).
    If you want to have per user chroot jail, you can use patched openssh
    (http://chrootssh.sourceforge.net/) or wait for the next rssh version ...
