[scponly] Script to create jailed scp user

[Nick Anderson]

Actually I finally found it. I was using the wrong path to scponlyc its in 
sbin not bin, so i was setting a shell that didnt exist.

So if anyone wants to use this script feel free. it runs on freebsd 5.3, im 
sure it will run on other systems with minimal changes.

I would reccomend adding $shell_path=system("which scponlyc"); at the top and 
changing the command that creates the user to 
system("pw useradd $username -d /home/scponly//home/$username -s 
$shell_path/scponlyc -m");

thanks
