if you want them to be able to get a shell ether then sftp prompt then you will have to go for the rbash option. If you chroot the shell to their home dir they wont have access to any system binaries so wont be able to 'ls' for example. Having said that you could build a tree of all the binaries they need along with all the dependent libraries. This would get a bit cumbersome and wasteful of disk space for lots of users though. You might be better off with jails. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
