Re: [Jailkit-users] Howto jail a ssh ftp user on a server with jailkit

[Richard Scott]

Hi,

I think i've used this before in SSH. If its what I think it is you you need to add something like this into /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Match User liam
  ChrootDirectory /home/liam
  ForceCommand internal-sftp

it would restrict the "liam" user to only write to files/folders in /home/liam that liam owns.

In my opinion JailKit is far better than this and should be used instead of chrooting users in this way?

These new ssh access users can then use the ssh ftp to roam around the system. Obviously I have not configured something correctly, *or* there is no why to run a sshd/ftp server config and jail users who also can login. Does anyone maybe know how to do this?
