Use zones to allow transfer of data only.

Has anyone used ZONES on Solaris 10 to restrict a user to only be able to use scp? 
I'm using Solaris 10 and I am trying to configure my server to only be able to allow users to execute scp to transfer data to a share hanging off my server, and also restricting  to their home directory so they have no access to anywhere else or atleast restrict them.

The goal is to have another system copy data to my system. Logins would not be unnecessary other then to transfer data.

I researched the use of chrooting a user and have run across a documents that explain how to put it together somewhat, however, the document said that the use of ZONES should be a more practical and  secure way to implement this config.

Howdy, Stranger!
