Have you tried putting users into groups and then giving permissions to the groups in the directory. Create a directory with permission for the owner then the group and no world access. Users that belong to that group will be allowed access. Another is the setfacl command on the directory you want to control access. This will control access to the individual Directories. Another way to control login shells is to use rbash. A restricted bash shell. Use with caution. Here is more info on that from securityfocus.com on rbash and other stuff. http://www.security-forums.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=2614 On Thu, 2004-07-01 at 12:16, Phil Schaffner wrote: > On Thu, 2004-07-01 at 12:49 -0500, Jonathan S wrote: > > I am new to Fedora, and Linux in general, I want users to be able to log in > > to my computer via ssh, with FC-1 but I want to be able to specify rules for > > each so they can only access specified folders is this possable?
