chroot ssh

[amigafan]

We've used a chroot environment for some ssh users. We followed this guide: http://gentoo.linuxhowtos.org/openssh/chrootedssh.htm

After one of the last updates this doesn't work anymore. Our clients get a "connection closed" instantly after typing in the password. We rebuild the chroot dir with all binaries but this doesn't work. Can anyone confirm this? I don't know which package is responsible for this - maybe the pam update?

thanks,

Just a shot in the dark, but per the Linux-PAM 0.99 upgrade guide did you restart sshd?

Yes, of course Its related with the new way pam handles chroot logins. pam_chroot is now needed and it needs to be configured.[/quote]
