[Chrootssh-users] User not automatically being Chrooted

[Michael C. <pu...@mj...>]

Hi,

I am trying to set things up so that I can allow a user to login via SSH =
but be restricted to their home directory.  I have created a chroot =
environment in /home/nomad (by placing the required folders and files in =
there) and I can now do "chroot /home/nomad" and things will work as =
expected.

I have changed the home of the user to /home/nomad/./
The problem is that when I log in as the user, either on the machine =
itself or through ssh, the user does not become automatically chrooted.  =
Ie. the user can still cd out of the /home/user.
I followed the instructions on this site (and am using a patched version =
of ssh) and I can't see anything that I have missed.

Any ideas as to what I could have missed?  I was under the impression =
that it was the "/home/nomad/./" setting for the user's home that =
defined the fact that the user should be chrooted and that it would =
either work or throw up an error (if something wasn't right.)  Just now =
it just seems to be ignoring the /./ in the user's home directory =
setting.  I am running RH9

Thanks=20
