Back Ed,
I was going to respond the same way, but after some testing discovered that ssh, scp and sftp all get "connection closed" with the shell set to /bin/false...

The easiest thing to do (I think) is to change the shell for oracle to /bin/false. That will kill all remote access but should allow the scp to continue.
The admins then need to do something like sudo su - -s /bin/bash oracle. This is how I maintain all my external FTP users that don't have shell access and I need to do work in their account areas.
