I am trying my hand at building a SFTP server to replace an FTP server at the company I work for. Because the FTP server was chrooted the powers that be want the SFTP server to likewise be chrooted. I was happy to see that the latest OpenSSH does this but I am having a problem getting it to work. When I try to login to my test acount, I get an error message: Fatal: unable to initialise SFTP: could not connect The home folder for the test user is setup to: drwxr-x--- 3 root test 512 May 23 16:21 test This user's shell is set to: /sbin/nologin The /etc/ssh/sshd_config file has been modified to include: Subsystem sftp internal-sftp Match User test ForceCommand internal-sftp ChrootDirectory %h I am sure that I am just missing something. Could someone point me in the right direction. thank you. PS I have looked in the archive, googled, and read the man pages. If the answer is out there, I missed it.
