You can do a chrooted enviroment (see above) And start de sshd witch chroot
<path of chrooted envirment> /sbin/sshd -f /etc/sshd_config

Also you can specify the shell of the users in /etc/passwd as
/sbin/sftp-server if you only want to allow this users do a sftp.

Subject: secure file transfer


Hi All, 

I am trying to implement a way of transfering files securely over the
Internet using sftp which is part of the ssh2 protocol.  A down side of
implementing this is that users logging on can browse the whole filesystem.
I have done some research and found a way to chroot users so they won't be
able to browse the filesystem (http://chrootssh.sourceforge.net/).  Can
someone please suggest if there are any other ways of implementing a secure
file transfer without patching sshd ???

Nato
