Release     : 10.fc8

Summary     : Restricted shell for ssh based file services
Description :
scponly is an alternative 'shell' for system administrators
who would like to provide access to remote users to both
read and write local files without providing any remote
execution priviledges. Functionally, it is best described
as a wrapper to the "tried and true" ssh suite of applications.
