OK, that's not a problem, but when they have shell (/bin/sh) they can work remotely (that is not what I want) and when they do not have a interactive shell (entry in /etc/passwd shows /bin/false) they cannot login either to ssh or sftp. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, because I use the default sftp service which is in OpenSSH: (/etc/ssh/sshd_config)Subsystem sftp /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server Maybe i should install a normal ftp server? (but the security case then?) My ideal solution would be: leave /usr/bin/passwd as shell, access for users to their ftp accounts through sftp (client may be putty psftp.exe or something). How to achieve it? bests vermin --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
