Have been using this for a few clients to do rsync with OpenSSH on
Windows, so thought I'd spread the word.
http://freebsdwiki.net/index.php/SSH:_Limiting_to_SCP_or_Rsync_only
Basically, you compile an rsync/scp/sftp-only shell with the c code
provided (which you can of course edit), and replace the remote user's
shell who's backing up their stuff.
This is not a 100% secure solution as the user can rsync/scp/sftp to
anywhere that they have rights to. . . but at least it's a start.
