[scponly] Modify a User Account + List installed Modules

The online man page for rsync should have the information you need to set it up and
start testing.

Some quick ways to see if rsync was enabled when scponly was built are:
	- look in the build directory config.log and see if --enable-rsync-compat was set
	- go into one of the chrooted jails and see if {chroot}/usr/bin/rsync is present
	- run strings on the scponlyc binary and grep for rsync (jail binary must also be there)

If you build scponlyc with rsync enabled and build jails with rsync it should just work. (We
haven't seen any problems.)

But I don't know how to change a User-Account, I'm new in the Linux-World and please forgive me if it's the simplest command but please tell me how to change the User-Account (Password, Username, Directory ...).

I looked on the homepage of scponly and read that the use of scponly with rsync is possible but I hadn't found a tutorial or some instructions how to configure it (except the advice that rsync-compatibility is only possible when activating it while the compilation of scponly). Can I list the installed 'modules' of scponly with a command?
