I have a website that I use sftp to connect to the root account. I am able to connect to it with
Code:
sftp root@domain
However, when I create a new user, and try to login with this account, it says permission is denied.
I have already checked with my provider, and tech support said they can login to the new account with the password without any issues.
I've tried deleting the account, creating new ones, increasing the available disk space, and I am able to login to the root account with ftp and lftp too. Checked the permissions of the user's directory=755, so I don't think the problem is there. I use cpanel on my website but I don't think it's a problem with the site software because, like I said, I spent over an hour with live chat support last night and they say my ftp accounts are working for them.
Could it be some configuration file my sftp program is using? Maybe I don't have it configured properly for these other accounts or it's not adding the required info when I attempt to? I read about /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts file but I don't have that file. Just the ssh_config.
Any ideas? - thx
