Ahh...I added the // to my /etc/passwd entry _after_ already creating the
user and populating it into the chroot passwd.

So I am adding the // to /etc/passwd after the fact, and not updating my
chroot passwd file.

Are you saying that if I do update my chroot passwd file, that I should be
able to scp without specifying the trailing username directory, even
though the chroot starts one level below that ?

Thanks.
