Openssh Sftp Chroot

Chrootdirectory Sftp

The OpenSSH server configuration is typically called something like /etc/ssh/sshdconfig. Find this file and open it in an editor. First we’ll make sure it will support SFTP in a chrooted environment. Search for a existing Subsystem sftp statement or insert it if it’s missing. There are different ways to lock a user into his home directory. A very special case is to grant sftp-only access, which does not require a full chroot jail to be set up. The sftp subsystem built into openssh allows a simple setup of a user locked into his home directory.
