We require that the users be chroot'd to the home directory, so we'd probably have to break the chroot to have a commonly writable directory...? > However, as to an actual solution, use the command= syntax in > authorized_keys (see sshd(8), under 'AUTHORIZED_KEYS FILE FORMAT', as > was pointed out to me on misc@ this week) to differentiate > between keys,if desired. It's not occuring how a command= option could be used to provide logging of which key was used to authenticate as that user. What did you have in mind? DS
