umask for internal-sftp users ?
Hello,

Running Debian 5.
SSH version 5.1p1-5.

How do I set umask for sftp only users ?

Users are jailed - that means they use internal-sftp:
Code:
# cat /etc/ssh/sshd_config
..........
Match group group1
        ChrootDirectory /home/%u
        X11Forwarding no
        AllowTcpForwarding no
        ForceCommand internal-sftp
..........


thanks
Vilius

Looks like it is not available without a patch (details here openssh patch)

I think rssh would be an easier option. Plus you will be able to restrict your users to sftp-only connections.
