Chrooted SFTP With MySecureShell On Debian Etch This tutorial shows how to install MySecureShell on a Debian Etch system. 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. in Public bookmarkswith chrootdebianetchjaillinuxmysecureshellopensshsecurityserversftp
Chrooted SSH/SFTP Tutorial (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. in Public bookmarkswith chrootdebianetchjaillinuxopensshsecurityserversftpssh
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). in Public bookmarkswith chrootdebianjailopensshsftpsqueezessh
SSH: Best Practices Are you using SSH in the best way possible? Have you configured it to be as limited and secure as possible? The goal of this document is to kick in the new year with some best practices for SSH: why you should use them, how to set them up, and how to verify that they are in place. All of the examples below assume that you are using EnGarde Secure Linux but any modern Linux distribution will do just fine since, as far as I know, everybody ships OpenSSH. in Public bookmarkswith opensshsecurityssh
