I've seen this problem listed a few times on the mailing lists, but haven't
seen any solutions posted.

I am running scponly v3.8 installed via ports on FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE.

I set the user's shell to "/usr/local/bin/scponly" and have added
"/usr/local/bin/scponly" to the /etc/shells file as well. I've set the
debuglevel to 2. I get this message when trying to copy a file to or from
the machine:

>  scp user at host:/usr/home/user/test.pl ./
Password:
[36830]: 3 arguments in total.
[36830]:        arg 0 is scponly

[36830]:        arg 2 is scp -f /usr/home/user/test.pl

[36830]: denied request: scp -f /usr/home/user/test.pl [username:
user(1000), IP/port: 192.168.11.13 2354 22]


Does anyone have a solution for this or can point out where else to look?
