I thought this was fixed, but for some reason the SFTP prompt won't ask me to change the password like I had originally thought, but ssh prompt will. It just disconnects me when connecting using SFTP Any ideas?
I am using the config in the post above for sshd pam.
I have disabled the shell for these users so they can't ssh to change their password. Is this even possible?

Hi all,
I have a Solaris 10 server with SUN_SSH_1.1 installed.
I want to restrict a user via SFTP to only be able to access one directory. I've written a little script in .profile which works perfectly for an ssh login but it appears sftp doesn't read the .profile file so it doesn't work.

Recently I have been playing with password ageing and the usage of ssh keys. I have found that if usePAM yes (default) is set in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file then any password ageing and inactiivity can adversely affect a client with ssh keys.
For example:

ssh-ldap-helper
SSH-LDAP-HELPER(8) BSD System Manager's Manual SSH-LDAP-HELPER(8)
NAME
ssh-ldap-helper -- sshd helper program for ldap support
SYNOPSIS
ssh-ldap-helper [-devw] [-f file] [-s user]
DESCRIPTION
ssh-ldap-helper is used by sshd(1) to access keys provided by an LDAP. ssh-ldap-helper is disabled by default and can only be enabled in the
sshd configuration file /etc/ssh/sshd_config by setting AuthorizedKeysCommand to ``/usr/libexec/openssh/ssh-ldap-wrapper''.
ssh-ldap-helper is not intended to be invoked by the user, but from sshd(8) via ssh-ldap-wrapper.
The options are as follows:
-d Set the debug mode; ssh-ldap-helper prints all logs to stderr instead of syslog.
-e Implies -w; ssh-ldap-helper halts if it encounters an unknown item in the ldap.conf file.
-f ssh-ldap-helper uses this file as the ldap configuration file instead of /etc/ssh/ldap.conf (default).
-s ssh-ldap-helper prints out the user's keys to stdout and exits.
-v Implies -d; increases verbosity.
-w ssh-ldap-helper writes warnings about unknown items in the ldap.conf configuration file.
SEE ALSO
sshd(8), sshd_config(5), ssh-ldap.conf(5),
HISTORY
ssh-ldap-helper first appeared in OpenSSH 5.5 + PKA-LDAP .
