I was wondering if someone could help me with the setup of a 'guest' account to connect to my media center using SFTP.
During the install of XBMCbuntu I provided an username and password, which I use now in Filezilla to connect on port 22. Once connected I can see my movies, etc. folders and all other kinds of folders such as /.xbmc etc. and I don't want others to see or access these 'special' folders. I want to create an account called Guest, which can be used to connect with Fillezilla on port 22 using SFTP, but this account only should have access to one folder called 'Shared'. So I can copy movies and other data in this folder, and other people could log in with a Guest-account, using SFTP, so they could download the movies from that 'Share'-folder.
Anyone have any experience with this? Thanks in advance!
