(this is the third try. In the previous mails the body was empty) Hi, I set up a chroot sftp server by following this guide: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/SFTP_chroot Things work well, with one exception: The root directory is not writable. The above docs give a hint how to work around this. But this is just a work-around. In my context I need a writable (ch)root directory. Is there a way to get both? - chroot - writable root Currently it does not work ===> sftp mysftpuser@remote-host: <<< $'put foo.txt' Connected to remote-host. Changing to: / sftp> put foo.txt Uploading foo.txt to /foo.txt remote open("/foo.txt"): Permission denied Here the permissions: remote-host:~ # ls -ld /home/mysftp/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dez 20 14:17 /home/mysftp/ Regards, Thomas -- Thomas Guettler http://www.thomas-guettler.de/ I am looking for feedback: https://github.com/guettli/programming-guidelines _______________________________________________ openssh-unix-dev mailing list openssh-unix-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.mindrot.org/mailman/listinfo/openssh-unix-dev
