Well, the sftp subsystem can be disabled, globally. But not scp to my knowledge. I suspect sftp may work with PAM. I don't know about scp and PAM. Even if scp can be disabled on a per user basis, the user can still do stuff like: ssh user at host 'cat /etc/passwd' Changing the login shell seems to be a pretty good way to get control over this. >> Port forwarding is another matter though.

Not necessarily my preferred solution, but that is a valuable idea. Thanks!
