Question about SSH - SFTP

[hamidr]

Hi dear memebers.

I want to disable ssh login while allowing users to use the inernal sftp functionality supported by ssh service. Is there anyway I can achieve this?
I must mentions that I'm not trying to use FTP service. I want to use the SFTP provided by SSH.
Regards.

Starting with OpenSSH 4.9p1, it is possible to configure chroot by default and limit SFTP access.
