User Login issue 1

[TSch]

Hi folks,

I created a user that's not supposed to be able to login via telnet or ssh but it IS supposed to be able to sftp to the system ...

Is there any way to restrict a user from connecting via anything but sftp ?

Regards

Perhaps set the user's shell to something like /bin/false.

I want to be good, is that not enough?

I think you can do this by setting the user in a restricted shell!

I just got another way to this! I think this is exactly what you need to do! Have a look at this link:

Hi again Thomas,

I think you can do the same thing by chaning some parameters in /etc/sshd_config!
