We want to setup an account so that a user can only FTP in a file. How
would I go about doing this?

I was thinking I should set the user's shell to ftp with a
"ftp macro" (I read the man page on FTP) that would receive one file
in binary, then quit. (which would then logout the user)

Is this do-able? (the man page on ftp wasn't too informative about macros)
Or is there a better way?

Thanks
 Shane
