I'm trying to setup rsync over ssh without giving the user a shell
account.  Unfortunately, setting the user's shell to /bin/false prevents
the rsync from running, as it fails with this error:
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes read so far)
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12)

Does anyone have any suggestions?

/sbin/nologin?
