In fact that's wrong. Although permissions are enforced by the ssh server, the server assumes that once a conncection is established, all requests on it are from the same originating user. The server is not able to check which user is accessing the files on the client machine - which is why Miklos wants/needs restrictive permissions on the client machine too. -- Jamie - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
