Re: [Jailkit-users] is it possible to "sudo su - user" to a jailkit user?

[Marcus]

Thanks, Richard - I really appreciate your help. Here is what I see when doing "su jane"

Jun  3 13:34:56 ip-10-29-233-97 su[20419]: Successful su for jane by root

Jun  3 13:34:56 ip-10-29-233-97 su[20419]: + /dev/pts/2 root:jane

Jun  3 13:34:56 ip-10-29-233-97 su[20419]: pam_unix(su:session): session opened for user jane by root(uid=0)

Jun  3 13:34:56 ip-10-29-233-97 jk_chrootsh[20420]: now entering jail /home/jail for user jane (1002) with arguments 

and if I do "su - jane"

Jun  3 13:36:42 ip-10-29-233-97 su[20424]: Successful su for jane by root

Jun  3 13:36:42 ip-10-29-233-97 su[20424]: + /dev/pts/2 root:jane

Jun  3 13:36:42 ip-10-29-233-97 su[20424]: pam_unix(su:session): session opened for user jane by root(uid=0)

Jun  3 13:36:42 ip-10-29-233-97 jk_chrootsh[20425]: abort, jk_chrootsh is called as -su

Jun  3 13:36:42 ip-10-29-233-97 su[20424]: pam_unix(su:session): session closed for user jane

That error is coming from the section of code I highlighted below. I'm using 2.16 - is that the same version you are on? I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit with all the latest updates.

It also looks like when I log in as "jane" via SSH that only /etc/bash.bashrc is running and never /etc/profile - so I'm getting ready to look through the code and see if jk_chrootsh should be passing something to bash to tell it whether it is a login shell or not.

Hi,

What is in your /var/log/messages?

I have this on a successful run of "su - richard":

Does yours show any errors?

Thanks,
