OK... So this is quickly turning into a FAQ...

I can't see a good way for using scp or rsync via rssh on the server
and having access chroot-ed for multiple users.


Any comment for not allowing any shell access at all (it's not needed
for the other methods of file transfer) and so for rsync using the
rsync daemon mode?

Still wondering about a good solution for scp, other than to not allow
its use...
