Description

Restricts SSH accounts to file-copy workflows instead of giving them a normal interactive shell. Administrators use it for accounts that should receive or send files through scp without broader command access.

It is a login shell component that must be configured with care. Incorrect setup can either block legitimate transfers or expose more access than intended, so review account permissions, chroot settings, and SSH configuration.
