Re: [Jailkit-users] jailing users to home with apache

[Olivier Sessink]

the apache process needs read access to the directories upstream to the home directories of the users.

so assume your apache process runs with user www-data and group www-data

then

chgrp www-data /opt/jail/home/*
chmod 0750 /opt/jail/home/*

So I have users setup that they have public_html in their root directory to put web files in however i'm unable to make this AND jailing user to their home directory work i.e

If I do

chmod 0700 /opt/jail/home/*

then users are jailed to their home dir and if they try to get into another they get Permission denied

however when browsing to their website i.e 

http://IP ADDRESS/~user

I get

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /~user/ on this server.

apache log

/opt/jail/home/user/.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable and that '/opt/jail/home/user/' is executable 9.htaccess exists)

if i do

chmod 0755 /opt/jail/home/*

then the page loads correctly

So what permissions do i need to use to jail users to home and make their page still viewable?
