Re: ssh - connect to directory outside of /user/home - permission denied
Turner Litigation Services [Fri, May 30, 2008 at 06:28:26PM -0700]: ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/data/pub/ gives permission denied errors. According to the unison manual the syntax in the configuration would be: root = ssh://[EMAIL PROTECTED]//path/to/file If you just want to copy some files, you could also use scp: scp [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/path/to/file .

You could just use: scp [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/directory [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/user/home Hope that helps, Turner Litigation Services wrote: How do you allow ssh to permit connections to a folder outside of the /home folder of the user loggin in to ssh?

For example, i want to sync two folders (using unison) on different machines and need to ssh to the remote folder .. but the folder is a shared folder outside of my home folder (i.e. /user/data/pub). ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] works to get me into the user folder and I can cd to the folder I need to access (and have proper perms there) But, I need to connect to the folder directly to use unison (file/directory synchronization tool). ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/data/pub/ gives permission denied errors. ^^ You are specifying a command to run once ssh connects, not the path to chdir to. I've heard the directory path needs to be relative to the home path but the following does not work either: ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] ../../../usr/data/pub/ (where the default directory for ssh logins is /usr/home/[username]/.) I've tried formatting variations of the above themes to no avail and suspect there's a setting somewhere to allow what directories ssh connections can be made to, or creating a link in [users] home directory to the public directory. Your help would be appreciated. You could use something similar to: ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] 'cd /usr/data/pub; unison .'
