Hi everyone, I'm doing some tests setting up an sftp server, with setting up a chroot jail for ftp users. Everything seems to be working fine, but "ftpuser" can cd to outside his home directory (ftpuser cannot access the user1 or user2 directories, but can get to etc, lib, and user), which ideally I don't want. I've played around with setting different permissions, but only the permissions below seem to work. In /etc/rssh.conf, I've got the following to set the chroot path: chrootpath = /home # pwd /home # ls -l total 24 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jun 15 10:41 etc drwx------ 3 ftpuser ftpuser 4096 Jun 15 11:20 ftpuser drwx------ 4 user1 user1 4096 May 25 15:27 gmi drwx------ 5 user2 user2 4096 Jun 14 16:54 jhb drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jun 14 17:28 lib drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Jun 14 17:26 usr I've then also removed all entries from the copy of the passwd file in /home/etc/passwd, so that only the ftp users' accounts appear in it. Any ideas on how to restrict access so ftp users are locked into their own home directories - if that is even possible? It doesn't seem like much of an issue to me, but I'd appreciate your thoughts. Thanks very much. Johan -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
