Re: How disable forwarding-only connections (i.e. non-shell/command non-sftp connections)? (Maybe this is a feature request!)

Not since privilege separation became the default ten years or so ago:
forwarded TCP connections will come from the unprivileged child sshd
running as the logged-in user.

authpf would just be the mechanism for ensuring that they'd sent a
session request, otherwise their outgoing tcp connections coming out
of sshd would get denied by PF.  You could have your script as the
login shell do its thing then exec authpf (or authpf-noip) at the end.

OK, thanks.  It feels like there should be some way to get a bsdauth
module to do this, but I've never tried anything like this before. I
can't find an obvious equivalent to a PAM session module, I'm not even
sure there is one.  I'll think about it a bit more.

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
