Spec URL: http://rebus.webz.cz/d/scponly.spec
SRPM URL: http://rebus.webz.cz/d/scponly-4.8-1.fc12.src.rpm2
License: BSD

Description: 
scponly is an alternative 'shell' for system administrators
who would like to provide access to remote users to both
read and write local files without providing any remote
execution privileges. Functionally, it is best described
as a wrapper to the "tried and true" ssh suite of applications.

Hello, please would be someone so kind and willing to do review 
of the scponly package and approve it for fedora? 
I do not have any package in Fedora sofar so I would humbly ask for sponsoring
as well.

Output from the rpmlint :
$rpmlint scponly-4.8-1.fc12.src.rpm scponly-4.8-1.fc12.i686.rpm scponly-debuginfo-4.8-1.fc12.i686.rpm
scponly.i686: E: setuid-binary /usr/sbin/scponlyc root 04755
scponly.i686: E: non-standard-executable-perm /usr/sbin/scponlyc 04755
3 packages and 0 specfiles checked; 2 errors, 0 warnings.

Please note the setuid is needed to be able to perform the chroot operation. 
Commands itself are never executed with uid 0 by the scponly.

Thank you.

scponly is already in Fedora and has been for quite a long time...
