Hello.

After a few hours I was able to setup a chrooted sftp system, and write a
short howto, since i couldn't find any :

http://mail.incredimail.com/sftp-chroot.html


I would like to get comments and advice, especially about 2 things :

1. is it possible to compile sftp-server with staticly linked libraries -
configure doesn't seem to have this option.

2. I have put the sftp-server binary as the shell for the users of the
server. I don't want to pur bash into the chroot jail, and I don't want to
use ssh's ssh_dummy_shell, cause it's not free. Is it dangerous to expose
sftp-server as a shell to my users, so they couldn't login interactively
into the system ?

3. a remark - the ./contrib/chroot.diff doesn't work with the latest
version, the file to patch has changed too much for patch to success here, i
had to go to the source and insert the patch manually.

Thank you.

Alex.
