Thanks, i did lots or reading lastnight bout jailing users but most of the websites for it is for proftp, i'll look up restricted shells though. I'm jsut setting up an FTP for myself and my friends, there not really rocket scientists so i just want to prevent them from doing somthing stupid accidentaly. My professor showed me a really easy way last semester, i'm going to try to hunt him down today and find out what that was. Thanks.

Im guessing your useing ProFtp?
If thats the case, and you whant to "jail" a user you could simply change/make a line in the config file My conf file is in - /etc/proftp.conf simply put this line in it: DefaultRoot "~" that would make the users home dir the absolute root for the user. it is still possible to login via telnet/ssh/rlogin with that user and pass. So thats a problem. Ive tryed to put (in /etc/passwd file) /false instead of like /bash as shell, but that will only make the ftp to deny access |
