Hi, I want to setup a sftp ONLY server using openssh with internal-sftp and chrootdirectory feature. The sftp does work fine. It did what I expect. I can chroot, uploading/downloading,etc. But I want that ssh and scp are both denied at user's login, e.g, displaying an error message stating 'account not availabe', something like that. But with internal-sftp and chrootdirectory, the ssh session will hang, same thing for scp. I have tried openssh version 4.9, 5.0, 5.1. They are all same behavior. The configuration for sftp part looks like the following: Subsystem sftp internal-sftp Match Group sftponly ForceCommand internal-sftp ChrootDirectory %u The user's shell is set to /sbin/nologin. I tried on Fodera system. Any help? --xinhuan
