Lightbulb customized shell for specific users

Hi there
I have an SFTP over Solaris as well it runs Samba. I need some users (outsiders) to use my SFTP facility as well to use the Samba. However i don't want them do anything else except file transferring via SFTP or Samba.

I was thinking to customize their Shell so that they would not run any commands except use copying and moving the files to their home folders.

However, i am still beginner in that field and hope to learn that.

You should probably try rssh, Never installed it myself on Solaris but FAQ does mention Solaris gotachs to it seems to work. This should work OK with samba too.
