I have a question about OSX Server. How can one set up sftp under OSX Server so that when a user logs in, only its user directory would be visible?

Restricted sheels seem to work really nicely with ssh, not allowing them to cd out of their directory, but that is ssh and not sftp.

Once again this is really simple to set up with ftp, but I am trying to move away from it.

So how could this be set up either in Jaguar Server or OSX Server....maybe under OSX.


Thanks,


t

Using a GUI or CLI sftp applicaiton is simple under OS X. I recommend fugu or transmit. When a user logs in, they see their home directory.
