Hi folks

I wanted to setup chroot for sftp in Redhat linux 9.0 and I have done
the following procedure

1.run the sscript

#!/bin/sh

CHROOT_DIR=/chroot

REQUIRED_CHROOT_FILES=" /bin/cp /bin/ls /bin/mkdir /bin/mv /bin/rm /bin/rmdir /bin/sh /usr/local/libexec/sftp-server"

# Create CHROOT_DIR
[ ! -d $CHROOT_DIR ] && mkdir $CHROOT_DIR
cd $CHROOT_DIR

# Copy REQUIRED_CHROOT_FILES and shared library dependencies
# to chroot environment

for FILE in $REQUIRED_CHROOT_FILES
do
DIR=`dirname $FILE | cut -c2-`
[ ! -d $DIR ] && mkdir -p $DIR
cp $FILE `echo $FILE | cut -c2-`
for SHARED_LIBRARY in `ldd $FILE | awk '{print $3}'`
do
DIR=`dirname $SHARED_LIBRARY | cut -c2-`
[ ! -d $DIR ] && mkdir -p $DIR
[ ! -s "`echo $SHARED_LIBRARY | cut -c2-`" ] && cp
$SHARED_LIBRARY `echo $SHARED_LIBRARY | cut -c2-`
done
done

2. cd chroot

#mkdir dev

#mknod /dev/null c 1 3

#mknod /dev/null c 1 5

#mkdir etc

#touch passwd

3.

User creation

useradd test -d /chroot/home/test

4. grep test/etc/passwd >> /chroot/etc/passwd

After completing all the above steps if I do

#chroot /chroot

bash-2.05b# ls
bin dev etc home lib usr
bash-2.05b# cd /
bash-2.05b# ls
bin dev etc home lib usr
bash-2.05b#


It works great, but if I do ssh/sftp with "test" user (which i created)

[root@testsftp /]# ssh test@localhost
test@localhost's password:
-bash-2.05b$ ls
-bash-2.05b$ cd /
-bash-2.05b$ ls
bin chroot etc initrd lost+found mnt proc sbin usr
boot dev home lib misc opt root tmp var
-bash-2.05b$


WHAT TYPE OF MISTAKE I AM DOING HERE, WHY IT IS NOT WORKING.

HELP PLEASE ( Anyother procedure please)
 
Google for a package called "scponly", works well to chroot sftp/scp users.
