Introduction

rssh is (or was) a restricted shell for use with OpenSSH, allowing only scp and/or sftp, rdist, rsync, and cvs.

Sadly RSSH died a horrible death in 2019 when it became clear that providing restricted access to arbitrary programs is nearly impossible, particularly without being extremely expert in all of the programs involved (including sshd and all of the applications you wish to restrict). This proved to be an unmanageable task, and support for RSSH ended with unpatched (and I believe unpatchable) security issues, not entirely the fault of RSSH itself.

Note: All archives of RSSH source have been removed from the site.
