I'm in the process of setting up an SSH jail, for the most part its
working as expected with one exception, I want to provide access to
/dev/ttyUSB0 through /dev/ttyUSB4 (not 2) via cu.
When I attempt to use "cu -lttyUSB0 -s9600" I always get "line in use"
even through it is not in use and from another account not restricted to
the "jail" I can successfully connect to the ttyUSB0.
I've tried creating $chroot/
run/
lock/
lockdev/
uucp/
var/
run -> symbolic link to $chroot/run
lock -> symbolic link to $chroot/run/lock
and then matched the directory permissions so they are the same as the
"real" system.
ls -l $chroot/dev/ttyUSB?
crwxrwxrwx 1 root dialout 188, 0 Jan 24 14:48 ttyUSB0
crwxrwxrwx 1 root dialout 188, 1 Jan 24 14:49 ttyUSB1
crwxrwxrwx 1 root dialout 188, 3 Jan 24 14:49 ttyUSB3
crwxrwxrwx 1 root dialout 188, 4 Jan 24 14:49 ttyUSB4
The dialout group is 18 and the user is in group 18, initially I set the
permissions for the ttyUSB? to 660 before changing it to 777 as a last
ditch effort.
The "real" /dev/ttyUSB? -
ls -l /dev/ttyUSB?
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 0 Jan 24 14:44 /dev/ttyUSB0
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 1 Jan 23 21:48 /dev/ttyUSB1
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 3 Jan 24 15:12 /dev/ttyUSB3
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 4 Jan 23 21:48 /dev/ttyUSB4
I'm probably missing something simple and any suggestions would be
appreciated.
Uhm, double check the permissions on the $chroot/var/run and
$chroot/var/lock directories and make sure that the user you're trying
to run as has write permissions in those directories. It's been a
while, but IIRC the only way cu can determine if a device is in use is
by checking the lock files and if it can't create a lock file, it says
the device is in use.
Why in the devil would you pull out that ancient program anyway? Man!
I haven't even LOOKED at cu/uucp in 15 years at least!
