I setup a web-server. I need to grant a user ssh access but I do not trust users. How can I limit user session to a specific directory such as /home/httpd/$USERNAME? How do I set up a ssh chroort jail on a Linux operating systems?
You can interactive shell with special root directory on a Linux or Unix-like systems. You can set the pathname (such as /home/httpd/foo) of a directory to chroot to after authentication. All components of the pathname must be root owned directories that are not writable by any other user or group. After the chroot, sshd changes the working directory to the user's home directory.
