[sllug-members]: sftp/ssh shell chroot(ing)

[David Miller]

I was wondering if anyone has had any experience doing
sftp/ssh in chroot using the 'NEW' way?  By new way,
I've read somewhere (lost where it was dang it! :@)
that the openssh suite now has an option in the
sshd.conf file that will do this without having to get
all the libs, make the needed dirs, etc.. and putting
them into the jail.

I've got an aging server with 1500+ users that uses a
very old commercial sftp program (without chroot, it
uses an ssh-dummy shell basically).  The company
doesn't want to fork out for the commercial version
again, however making a chroot jail for each user with
their own libs, etc would be a royal PITA ;) not to
mention applying updates when they come along.

Thanks in advance for your help.
