ooh ooh.. OK I did a lot of research on this for a project .. only to
have the project get shelved for another time. So if any one has (
updated ) info on the best way to do this I'd be interested too.
Basically you want to create a chroot jail for the user loggin in so
they can't access anything outside of the home ( or designated )
dir.... here's a good Debian reference... In my case I'm looking for
SFTP rather than SCP but its pretty much the same type of function.. you
want to transfer data yet restrict the user to a single dir.

if you are wanting to only grant scp access you should look at scponly

which is a wrapper that you set as the login shell for the remote user account
Otherwise, you probably want to set up a chroot login account
for which there are numerous HOWTO's like this one

I've created a user and group and want to restrict the access to
a single directory to allow someone to "scp" files to me. What I
want is to restrict that user/group to only that folder without
being able to browse out of it and not able to run a shell.
They'll be using the non-commercial SSH client to drag and drop.
TIA for any help,
Mr O.
