[Chrootssh-users] /./ in /etc/passwd causes login failure.

[Michael B. <MBe...@st...>]

Patched SSH3.8.1p1-8(Debian Sarge) with osshChroot-3.8.1p1.diff.

Standard /etc/passwd (i.e. no "/./") works fine.

Adding "/./" to users results in login failure:=20

mbellears3:x:1003:100::/./var/www/mbellears3:/bin/sh (I have tried
placing the "/./" in various locations of the user home dir without
success)=20

My chroot Jail is /var/chroot/apache

SFTP + SSH both fail is the same manner.
