scponly has been removed from Debian packages. I'm using scp to pull backups from a Debian 8 server and for previous Debian servers I've set the login shell to scponly in order to restrict the backup user. What is a good replacement shell for scponly, or what configuration can be made to sshd to provide security equivalent to scponly?
