Restricting SFTP/SSH usage - TrueNAS 13.0

Hello.
I’m using TrueNAS 13.0 and need to enable SFTP access to it. It works fine, but I can’t find a way to allow SFTP/SSH connections for specific users only. It’s allowed for all users with the only option to block root. Any way to fix this?

Rather than password authentication you could use key pairs for each user you want to allow access to.

Alternatively you could consider whether migrating to TrueNAS 24.10 or 25.04 is an option for you, this has the support to restrict user password access:

Thanks! This “key pairs” is a fancy solution. I like it.
