Hi,
Hopefully, not too off-topic but I'm having trouble setting up a user
account on a FreeBSD server (an OS I'm not greatly comfortably with
yet), to use the scponly [http://www.sublimation.org/scponly/wiki/]
shell.
I basically want to allow the account SFTP access, but not have an
interactive login shell - so scponly looks like what I'm after.
I've set the user's login shell to be /usr/ports/shells/scponly and
also added the shell to /etc/shells.
When I try to SFTP into the server with the user, though, I'm getting
the "Received message too long 1416128883" error. Googling hasn't
really helped much.
Anyone got any suggestions?
TIA,
Peter.
