I'm somewhat surprised that this is still this difficult to accomplish.

The F-Secure SSH server (now AttachmateWRQ's Reflection for Secure IT)
has built in functionality to chroot sftp users. You can add user
names to the sshd2_config file under the value "ChrootUsers". You can
then add the ssh_dummy_shell to the relevant user in /etc/passwd and
deny shell access to that user with a message of your choice.

Please note that this is not a plug as I don't work there anymore, it
just happens to be a nice feature!!
