By using “Match” in the OpenSSH configuration file we can limit the right a certain user, group or host enjoys. Add the Match directive in your sshd_config followed by a criteria (User, Group, Address or Host). The following example limits TCP and X11 port forwarding for the jack user:
AllowTcpForwarding no
X11Forwarding no
Match User jack
AllowTcpForwarding yes
X11Forwarding yes
