Description: A Packaged version of SCPOnly 4.8 for Solaris 10 SPARC.

Modifications to this Solaris package away from the standard source:.

* This package automatically adds scponly and scponlyc in
/etc/shells. Removing this package will remove these shells.

* As as quick and easy way of creating jails, I added
o * setup_scponly *- Installs scponly, allowing the user to
traverse directories
o *setup_scponlyc *- Installs scponly in a jailed environment
These are a modification of the setup_chroot.sh script with
modifications.

* The default binaries required and upon which the libraries used
for the jail
rely, are listed in /usr/local/etc/scponly/scponly.binaries. This
allows a
Solaris packing approach without relying on source code.

* Additionally, the default username, homedirectory base and
writeable directory
can be defined and will override the script defaults. Defined in:
/usr/local/etc/scponly/scponly.binaries.

* Setting the defaultwriteabledir to in the above file to _USERNAME_
will allow for default paths such as:
//export/home/james/james/
where
//export/home/james// is the home directory with
//export/home/james/james/ being the writable directory.

I hope this helps all those underpaid and overworked Solaris admins. Enjoy.

This package installs into /usr/local.
