Description: A common situation we come across is one of allowing people secure filecopying to a system, but without giving full shell access to the system at the same time. We've long since recommended scponly, which is a great solution to this very problem. scponly is a shell for UNIX systems that allows just that - scp/sftp only, with no access to an actual shell.

Today we were implementing this on a Solaris 10 x86 system, but couldn't find a Sun package to do it - so we compiled it up and rolled our own package.
