i think this question has come up before. is it possible to give a user
scp access without giving them shell access to a machine? i'm not sure
i've ever seen an answer on this. this web page has a perl script that
will set that up:
http://www.snailbook.com/faq/restricted-scp.auto.html
the script could do more argument checking for the hyper-paranoid, but
it seems pretty secure. add it to /etc/shells and set the user's shell
to it and that should be your question answered.
