You can chroot internal-sftp but not external. Penned by Denis Doroshenko on 20100108 16:50.31, we have: | hi, | | is there any benefits of using internal-sftp over | /usr/libexec/sftp-server (which is being used with default | sshd_config)? sshd_config(5) says: | | For file transfer sessions using | ``sftp'', no additional configuration of the environment is nec- | essary if the in-process sftp server is used, though sessions | which use logging do require /dev/log inside the chroot directory | (see sftp-server(8) for details). | | so default sshd_config uses a program, but internal-sftp is better for | chroot. what are benefits of /usr/libexec/sftp-server except for stuff | like timezone, locale, resolver etc. being initialized each time an | sftp connection being made? | | thanks!
