[Jailkit-users] Sftp users are not able to chroot with Jailkit setup

[Seshan, Vinod K. (CONT)]

Hi Team,

 

We have installed/configured jailkit version jailkit-2.11-1.el5.rf on our RHEL5 server. We have SSH Tectia Client 6.1.7 build 139 installed in this server. When a chrooted user configured with jailkit login to server using ssh , the user is logged into the correct jail and the jailed user cannot go to other directories out of jail. But if the chrooted user sftp to the server, the user is not chrooted and the user can cd to any other directory in the server. Could you please let us know what all modifications we need to make to enable sftp support for jailkit.

 

Chroot system call can only be made as root and the sftp-server is run as a subsystem request by a user inside the ssh session. Is it because this the sftp login is not able to enter to jail and using ssh we are able to enter into jil. If this is the case, then what is the solution for chroot users who sftp to the server.

 

Thanks & Regards,
