Ok I just tried this on my opensolaris laptop (build 130) and it works fine, give this a go:
Step 1: Setup user r...@milwaukee:~# groupadd sftponly r...@milwaukee:~# r...@milwaukee:~# useradd -g sftponly -m -d /export/home/user1 -s /usr/bin/false user1 80 blocks r...@milwaukee:~# r...@milwaukee:~# passwd user1 New Password: Re-enter new Password: passwd: password successfully changed for user1 Step 2: Add following to end of /etc/ssh/sshd_config # SFTP jail setup Match Group sftponly ChrootDirectory %h AllowTcpForwarding no r...@milwaukee:~# svcadm restart ssh Step 3: Change directory permissions to satisfy openssh/sftp. r...@milwaukee:~# ls -ld /export/home/user1/ drwxr-xr-x 2 user1 sftponly 7 2010-03-10 23:16 /export/home/user1/ r...@milwaukee:~# r...@milwaukee:~# chown root /export/home/user1/ r...@milwaukee:~# r...@milwaukee:~# chmod 750 /export/home/user1/ Step 4: Test it out... r...@milwaukee:~# sftp us...@127.0.0.1 Connecting to 127.0.0.1... Password: sftp> sftp> pwd Remote working directory: / sftp> sftp> ls local.cshrc local.login local.profile sftp> sftp> sftp> cd / sftp> ls local.cshrc local.login local.profile sftp> sftp> cd .. sftp> ls local.cshrc local.login local.profile sftp> cd ../.. sftp> ls local.cshrc local.login local.profile sftp> So its working correctly - the user is jailed to their home directory. However you will find you can't write to the home directory: sftp> sftp> mkdir mydir Couldn't create directory: Permission denied sftp> sftp> ls local.cshrc local.login local.profile sftp> sftp> exit So, Step 5: Create a subdirectory inside home folder that user can write to. r...@milwaukee:~# mkdir /export/home/user1/drop_box r...@milwaukee:~# r...@milwaukee:~# chown user1:sftponly /export/home/user1/drop_box r...@milwaukee:~# r...@milwaukee:~# sftp us...@127.0.0.1 Connecting to 127.0.0.1... Password: sftp> ls drop_box local.cshrc local.login local.profile sftp> sftp> cd drop_box sftp> ls sftp> sftp> mkdir mydir sftp> ls mydir sftp> cd mydir sftp> ls sftp> sftp> put release_vnics.sh Uploading release_vnics.sh to /drop_box/mydir/release_vnics.sh release_vnics.sh 100% 100 0.1KB/s 00:00 sftp> sftp> quit PS Notice that interactive ssh sessions are disabled via the use of the false shell when adding the account. The forcecommand is not mentioned in the opensolaris man page and from the errors does not seem to be supported. Because the user has no shell and only sftp access I believe the same outcome is achieved anyhow. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-help mailing list opensolaris-help@opensolaris.org
