SFTP and SSH

Is it possible to allow a user remote access to a linux machine via SFTP and NOT SSH? And, vica-versa.

Thanks!!

hi,

there is a project called rssh (restricted ssh shell). it only allows scp/sftp.
project page:
http://rssh.sourceforge.net/

maybe that will help you,

i tried it a half year ago and it worked nice.

Sigsegv,

Do you know if this supports rsa keys? (Sorry for asking, but I haven't read the docs yet!) :-)

I never tried to get it to work with keys so I have no idea. It's just a shell replacement for a chroot'd scp/sftp session though, so I'd think it would.
