[scponly] Initial Directory

[Daniel Lorch]

Hi

I am looking for a way of changing the initial directory after the user 
has logged in - basically something that mimicks proftpd's DefaultChdir 
[1] directive. In proftpd I have set this directive to "DefaultChDir 
public_html", which sends the user automatically to that directory.

In the archives someone suggested [2] that one could supply this value 
with the magic character '//', so the user's home directory would become 
'/home/user//public_html'. The problem with that is that a lot of 
software I'm using depends on the right value for the home directory, so 
this won't work for me.

Writing a 'cd' into .bashrc obviously won't work either (as bash is 
never invoked), so the right place to make the chdir-call would be 
inside of scponly. Has anyone got an idea on how this could be solved 
best? A configure-Option (--default-chdir), a configuration file..?
