User Reviews

  • This has the very useful feature of being able to drop the user into a subdirectory on logging in, rather than leaving them in the chrooted root directory, which is locked down by its root ownership.
  • Neither cvs or released tar version compiles. Looks like this was reported in bug tracker 2yrs ago. In a modern sshd server you can set the shell to /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server
