[scponly] Problem swapping to writable subdirectory - incoming with WinSCP

[Adrian Jones]

Ok, well I set the debug level to 2, but I don't seem to be getting very
verbose output. Here is the content from my syslog after logging on using
WinSCP with the chrooted user:

exec of /home/testuser/usr/lib/sftp-server within chroot by process
/usr/local/sbin/scponlyc[scponlyc:15503] uid/euid:1018/1018
gid/egid:100/100, parent /usr/sbin/sshd[sshd:3132] uid/euid:1018/1018
gid/egid:100/100 

Just to confirm, I did a: cat /usr/local/etc/scponly/debuglevel and the
output is: 2

Sorry, really not sure why I am not getting more output.

Thanks for your help with this,
Adrian

Hi everyone.
 
Well after a bunch of problems trying to install scponly using the Debian
apt package, I setup the latest unstable .deb package and things seem to be
working pretty well. I am using scponlyc with chroot. Using the SSH SFT
window the user is logged in and taken straight to the incoming subfolder
with no access to anything above it - exactly what I want to have happen.
However, with WinSCP they are take to their home directory. They can see all
the other folders inside home, but cannot browse above their home directory.
Can someone tell me why WinSCP is not taking them straight to the incoming
subfolder and limiting them to that folder?
 
On a somewhat related note - I am getting transfer errors with the SHH SFT
window when copying files into the incoming subdirectory. The file is
actually transferred and seems to be fine, but I always get the error. I
don't get this error with WinSCP.
 
Would appreciate any help.
 
Thanks,
Adrian

Hi,

Could you turn on logging and post the output?  That will help us determine
what's going on as there are a number of things it could be.

Information on turning on logging is available here:

Thanks.
