Thanks for the windows ssh products. initial googling had left me with the (obviously mistaken) impression that gui based file transfers woer going to be an issue. I have to admit that since digging a bit into the various chrooted ftp servers out there, I really like that idea. I think it is a shame that the openssh team apparently does not see this sort of functionality as part of the scope of the project. At least that is what I recall from a thread awhile ago. In my mind, the ability to restrict a user to an area of a filesystem combined with pki authentication would be the ideal solution and a good free client of course.
