I currently use ssh and scponly to restrict users to file transfers
only, with authentication currently carried out using passwords.

However, I was wondering whether it is possible to specify an
alternative shell depending upon the user and authentication method
used.  For example, if using public key authentication I would like
certain users (especially me!) to be able to invoke a bash shell -
however, for all other authentication methods and all other users I
would like it to default to scponly.

I've tried adding an entry to the authorized_keys file specifying
/bin/bash, but this just lead to ssh using scponly as the shell to
invoke bash - which obviously didn't achieve the desired affect!

Many thanks,

Ben
