Hi all,

I've written a small patch for F-Secure SSH version 1 (1.2.30) which adds
a chroot() to home directory option to SSH. Basically this works by
specifying GuestUser directives in /etc/sshd_config, listing which users
should be chroot()ed to their home. 

I have informed the SSH mailing list, but I have had no response, so
I guess F-secure has abandoned SSH 1 and they are not adding new features
anyway. Having said that, I believe it is a useful and security-enhancing
feature (certainly in my case!).

The patch is at:

comments would be appreciated =)

Cheers, Chris.
