could you please be more specific in this point? :) some example (or pointer to relevant part of a documentation) would be very welcome...That's not quite what he asked, but you can restrict what commands can be run (to just rsync) using the authorized_keys file too....
also, does this mean, that i could specify that any rsync via ssh is allowed, everything else is forbidden?
another possibility - how to disable the possibility of user getting into the shell. i.e. ssh machine "ls foo" would work as expected, but ssh machine would just fail / disconnect immediately as well as ssh machine "bash"
thanks, -- Lubos _@_"
