    VSFTPD and Jailkit

    Hello All,

    Im usingJailkit 2.13 ( on a plain centos server, As well as sftp access etc I want to give users regular FTP access chroot'd to their home dir.

    My VSFTPD worked fine doing this before i'd installed the jailkit, but now as each users home dir has moved into the jail its not longer able to connect via ftp?

    Do i need to specify the location of the jailed /home dir for vsftpd to work? If so how do i go about doing this!


    Thanks!

    Well you would tell vsftpd to look for those users. By edditing the vsftpd.conf with chroot options like (chroot_list_enable, chroot_list_file, and passwd_chroot_enable) then chroot jail location can be specified on a per user basis.
