Re: sftp virtual root directory



Have a look at the SSL/TLS module for ProFTPD: http://www.castaglia.org/proftpd/doc/contrib/ProFTPD-mini-HOWTO-TLS.html

ProFTPD has a setting to set the default root. I use "DefaultRoot ~" to keep users inside their home directory.

hi.

as i have searched the web for a similar topic and have found nothing (yet),
i'd like to add another question:

"scponly" seems to be a simple shell-substitution.
thus all users that are given /usr/bin/scponly as shell will have only very
limited access to a server. (e.g: using "ssh")

now, i want my users to use "ssh" for logging into my machines.
"sftp" should be used as a replacement for "ftp".
now i want all users of "sftp" to have a restricted access (to be precise: i
want a root-jail like it is provided by (pro)ftp))

however, when a user is smart enough to now about the joys of "ssh", s/he
should be able to login using the secure-shell, without any restrictions
(provided by the shell; e.g: no root-jail should be made,...)

is this possible ?

probably with pam ? but i guess ssh and sftp appear to be the very same from
the PAM-side. is this true ?
