Hi Remus,

If you are so inclined you can chroot (change root) the user login. The 
link below has a brief overview...

Hrm, I see this request a lot, but I don't exactly understand why..  if 
the 
box is properly configured, what would it matter if they see the root 
partition, or any other globally readable file.  Perhaps I'm just too good 

natured, or don't know how to |-|4x0r enough or whatever.

A side question would be, does sftp require a valid shell to do it's file 
copies?
