MySecureShell is an SFTP server that is based on OpenSSH and can be configured in many ways, e.g. it has support for chrooting users into their homedirs or for limiting upload-/download bandwidths. MySecureShell makes SFTP available for users that do not have shell access so that these users do not have to use the insecure FTP protocol anymore. falko Fri, 21 Sep 2007 08:57:44 GMT http://www.howtoforge.com/chroot_ssh_sftp_fedora7 This document describes how to set up a chrooted SSH/SFTP environment on Fedora 7. The chrooted users will be jailed in a specific directory where they cannot break out. They will be able to access their jail via SSH and SFTP. falko Wed, 24 Oct 2007 08:51:16 GMT http://www.howtoforge.com/chroot_ssh_sftp_debian_etch This tutorial describes two ways how to give users chrooted SSH access. With this setup, you can give your users shell access without having to fear that they can see your whole system. Your users will be jailed in a specific directory which they will not be able to break out of. The users will also be able to use SFTP in their chroot jails. falko Sun, 09 Sep 2007 10:01:00 GMT http://www.howtoforge.com/chrooting-apache2-with-mod_chroot-on-debian-lenny This guide explains how to set up mod_chroot with Apache2 on a Debian Lenny system. With mod_chroot, you can run Apache2 in a secure chroot environment and make your server less vulnerable to break-in attempts that try to exploit vulnerabilities in Apache2 or your installed web applications. falko Thu, 15 Apr 2010 12:21:18 GMT http://www.howtoforge.com/chrooting-apache2-with-mod_chroot-on-fedora-12 This guide explains how to set up mod_chroot with Apache2 on a Fedora 12 system. With mod_chroot, you can run Apache2 in a secure chroot environment and make your server less vulnerable to break-in attempts that try to exploit vulnerabilities in Apache2 or your installed web applications. falko Tue, 06 Apr 2010 12:28:40 GMT http://www.howtoforge.com/safe_mirror_unionfs_chroot When reading a hint on the website of LinuxFromScratch I discovered the special capabilities of unionfs, specially in combination with chroot. Later I read a HowTo on a wikiwebsite of Gentoo, about entering a chrooted home directory when using a special script as shell. Combining these two brings me to using a chrooted environment, which you enter when logging in as a special user. This environment is an exact copy (mirror) of the system you are working on. Because you are in safe copy of the real system, you can do whatever you like, it will never change the system, everything stays inside the cache (the readwrite branch). falko Fri, 29 Jun 2007 10:58:53 GMT http://www.howtoforge.com/restricting-users-to-sftp-plus-setting-up-chrooted-ssh-sftp-debian-squeeze This tutorial describes how to give users chrooted SSH and/or chrooted SFTP access on Debian Squeeze. With this setup, you can give your users shell access without having to fear that they can see your whole system. Your users will be jailed in a specific directory which they will not be able to break out of. I will also show how to restrict users to SFTP so that they cannot use SSH (this part is independent from the chroot part of this tutorial). falko Tue, 06 Sep 2011 08:01:39 GMT
