What I'm doing is allowing my GF and others to use a GUI SSH
client for Windows to login to the fileserver strictly to access
my .ogg collection. I don't want to grant them any other access
and they more than likely won't know much about moving up to
other directories so I'm not terribly paranoid about /tmp.
Locally I use samba and NFS for my own stuff. I'm more
comfortable having them use a secure login. Also, can I restrict
a users ability to change the password?
