Hello to everyone...

I am (so far) unsuccessfully trying to accomplish the following:

PREVENT THE SYSTEM USER OF A SUBSCRIPTION FROM LOGGING INTO A SHELL, BUT AT THE SAME TIME PROVIDE THE SUBSCRIPTION USER SFTP ACCESS TO THEIR HTTPDOCS DIRECTORY

If this possible through the interface? Has anyone accomplished it otherwise? If no to both of those, is there known documentation (by Odin or anyone else) for how to correctly do this?

Thanks -
 
It is impossible now.
You can try to achieve it with rssh and allow sftp in /etc/rssh.conf with

# usermod -s /usr/bin/rssh user

but I afraid that all your customizations will be overwritten by Plesk.
You can submit feature request to plesk.uservoice.com as possible solution.
