That's currently my backup solution, I tested it and it works under 
scponly shell since I don't want the user to have shell access.  I 
thought there might be a better solution than winscp3, nobody uses 
winscp3 before, and I don't want to spend time supporting winscp3.

But if I can't find a better solution, I guess this is the solution I'm 
going to implement.

wooi.
