Hi, I am a new user of rssh. I have just installed rssh on Solaris. I like to setup sftp user restriction. I have found no documentations, only some basic short man pages. Where can I find configuraiton documentations (for Solaris better)? Mr. Derek Martin, please forgive me: not all people are as smart as you are- at least I am not :( You wrote an excellent program with poor documentation. Please help. Thanks.

There are several places which provide explanations on setting up a chroot environment (and also per-user restrictions) to be used with rssh. - The CHROOT file in the source package. - man rssh.conf - The default rssh.conf file (located in /usr/local/etc/rssh.conf, by default) Have you taken a look at those yet?

I have been reading them, but they are not systematical. Many things can not be found. For example, in rssh.conf: #user=rudy:011:10:"/usr/local/chroot dir" # sftp with chroot What does this "dir" mean here? If the writer gives an example, it would be much chear. After I setup the chroot, what do I need to do to make it work? No answers in these files. Maybe I am slow here, but if a programmer assumes that the users can figure out everything by themselves, he/she is not that good either. By the way, I did setup chroot for BIND9 DNS without any problem. Thanks.

Here are what I have done. 1) Without rssh, the OpenSSH is working. 2) Added rssh into the user shell in password file 3) Made /home/chroot and copied these files 4) Edited the rssh.conf 5) run rssh # cat rssh.conf: allowsftp umask = 022 chrootpath=/home/chroot user=tester:011:02:/home/chroot # sftp with chroot but when I try to connect, I got: Fatal: unable to initialise SFTP: could not connect What is wrong? The ftp client I use is psftp. Thanks. Melissa __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free, easy-to-use web site design software http://sitebuilder.yahoo.com |
