The ssh and sftp commands should belong to the same package, openssh-clients. The sshd daemon belongs to the openssh-server package. The versions should match (or at least be very close). From your other posts I think that your faculty accounts might be in a chroot environment. There is an article in the Red Hat Knowledge Base that describes setting up an sftp-only environment for your faculty. You can check this by looking for Match Group sftp in /etc/ssh/sshd_config. This would indicate that any account created with the default group sftp would be in the chroot environment. If they are in a chroot environment that would require that their default shell and home directory be specified according to the chroot configuration (-s /bin/false, -d /username [relative to the chroot environment]). -- Alfred -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
