Shell hosting

Hi, IMA nOOb;

I would greatly appreciate it if anybody could shed some light on this subject.

For example I want users to login using ssh or ftp

and not be ABLE to leave their userdir

so they cannot view any directories outside of the /home/user

so they can't

cd /
ls
Sorry I am new to this type of thing and don't know how to "talk the talk"

Now I am thinking possibly chroot(jailing) maybe involved? Who knows *not me*?

I would like to thank all the folks who replied to this question and apprieciate your perspective on this issue. I would also like too thank all people who looked at and read this post.

DESCRIPTION

NOTES

       The protocol is architecture dependent.

       The in.talkd service is managed by the service management facility, smf(5), under the service identifier:

	 svc:/network/talk

       Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling, disabling, or requesting restart, can be performed using svcadm(1M). Responsibil-
       ity for initiating and restarting this service is delegated to inetd(1M). Use inetadm(1M) to make configuration changes and to view config-
       uration information for this service. The service's status can be queried using the svcs(1) command.
