    The F-Secure SSH server (now AttachmateWRQ's Reflection for Secure IT)
    has built in functionality to chroot sftp users. You can add user
    names to the sshd2_config file under the value "ChrootUsers". You can
    then add the ssh_dummy_shell to the relevant user in /etc/passwd and
    deny shell access to that user with a message of your choice.

    Please note that this is not a plug as I don't work there anymore, it
    just happens to be a nice feature!!
