how to use sftp with no shell access

807559Apr 21 2005 — edited Feb 16 2006
Hi !
I'm trying to use an sftp in a chroot environment and want to restrict the shell access of the user.
I have configured the /etc/passwd with /bin/true
As I found out, sftp only runs with an accessible shell. Is there any possibility to give a shell to the user that denies telnet etc.

Thanks
Martin
