I am setting up SFTP access to one of my machines running Linux with the Dropbear SSH server. When I SFTP onto the machine remotely, I can see the entire filesystem on it, even if I might not have write access. How to I control what directories a user can see when connecting to my machine via SFTP? For example, what if I only want to make one directory, e.g. /ftp/, visible and accessible? Thanks.

I believe you'll need to run your dropbear ssh server inside a chroot'd jail if you want to restrict it to certain directories. If you were using a recent OpenSSH, I'd suggest using the ChrootDirectory setting in your sshd_config. It doesn't appear as though dropbear has a similar parameter, so you'll have to do it manually. |
