- Allow SCP but not actual login using SSH 10 answers
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?
allowscpuncommented in/etc/rssh.confis a good solution? – RjOllos Oct 3 '15 at 17:35rsshI've restricted based on hostname as described in the answer. – RjOllos Oct 5 '15 at 20:59
