Is there no way to preserve permissions on sftp?

linux-howto

http://serverfault.com – Debian 6 I've setup /etc/ssh/sshd_config as such: Subsystem sftp internal-sftp -u 0002 Match Group sftp ChrootDirectory %h ForceCommand internal-sftp -u 0002 AllowTcpForwarding no Match I get the users home to /var/www and chown the owner to root:root. All good. The user can access via sftp and alter subdirectories. Now folders created from the client get the right permissions but not files and any files or folders copied across don't get their permissions changed. Which is what I require for apache and other ssh users to work with the files. How can I solve this? (HowTos)

User can't SFTP after chroot 38 weeks 2 days ago

Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS

I'm trying to chroot the user 'sam'.

After using the SSH quite a lot on my 1.5 week old Debian 6 VPS, I wanted to start uploading files through SFTP. I already tried that earlier, but with the root account, which isn't possible with SSH anymore due to security changes.

So I've made a separate user, let's call him sftpuser for now, who belongs to the group sftp.

Hello, I am trying to implement a chroot directory for a group of sftp users who all manage a shared directory. The relevant portion of my sshd_config file is below:

Subsystem sftp internal-sftp

Match Group mygroup ChrootDirectory /foo/bar X11Forwarding no AllowTcpForwarding no ForceCommand internal-sftp

I'm running Debian stable and I'm looking to establish the following environment for users in my 'sftponly' group:

jailed can transfer with SFTP can transfer with SCP cannot login interactively with SSH

From my experimentation and research, it seems that the following stanza in sshd_config gets me 90% there:

Match group sftponly ChrootDirectory /sftp/%u X11Forwarding no AllowTcpForwarding no

I'm trying to allow a user "user" to access my server by either sftp or ssh. I want to jail them into a directory with chroot.

Hi everybody

I have a ubuntu 10.04.4 server running.

chrooted SSH & SFTP user 46 weeks 3 days ago

Hello there!Going through https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/SFTP-chroot and addding a new group with removed ForceCommand parameter from sshd_config still doesn't let me to log in to ssh.

I have several users transferring files over via sftp. I have a umask set to 0002, but the files some transfer over are 440. Umask only limits the permissions and so doesn't help when the files are more restricted than the umask. Is there a way to force sftp to create files with write permissions, e.g.

I am triying to jail user.

I have got these directories:

var/www (root:www-data, 755) var/www/web1 (webmaster:www-data, 755) var/www/web2 (webmaster:www-data, 755)

On my ssh_config I have got:

Subsystem sftp internal-sftp

Match User webmaster ChrootDirectory /var/www ForceCommand internal-sftp

The user can enter in the system with the credentials.
