Dear developers, The SSH daemon allows sftp connections (through internal-sftp) to a chroot directory for specific users or groups. This prevents them from having access with a regular ssh connection to their default terminal (as it should prevent). Yet, there are cases (as I had the need to implement) where a custom shell (eg: used for system configurations) is provided for some users while simultaneously the users had access only to their designated folder using the chroot-sftp functionality (in order to download or upload configuration files and logs). I would suggest the option for the default shell (as set in passwd) to escape chroot and execute as normal. Thank you for your time and consideration. And of course for the amazing project that is openssh. Best regards, Pipinis Konstantinos PS: This is something I have already implemented and could implement for the mainstream OpenSSH source. _______________________________________________ openssh-unix-dev mailing list openssh-unix-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.mindrot.org/mailman/listinfo/openssh-unix-dev
