If you will be logging in with ssh from one specific IP address, you can launch sshd from xinetd (or inetd) and then add a line in your hosts.allow to allow access to sshd from that IP address. Make sure you have a statement in hosts.deny to block everything else.
hosts.allow: sshd: 192.168.100.1 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:security-basics-return-12256-jfowler=westrope.com@securityfocus. com]On Behalf Of Choman Sent: Thursday, June 13, 2002 12:15 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: User specific ssh and sftp-server Hey all, I've been poking around sshd and sftp-server man pages, but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for. Basically, I would like to limit ssh access to only 1 user on my machine (choman), and sftp access to another user on my machine (choftp). However, choftp is running /bin/false as a shell, and I would like to keep it like that. choman is a normal user, but I'm pretty much setting choftp as an ftp only user. Thanks for any help! Like the man said, reading man pages is a skill. > man man
