SSH chroot type thing?

Hey everyone!

I have a question about sshd. I'm running Fedora Core 2, btw.

I managed to successfully chroot users in vsftpd, but now I need to find some way to prevent users from exiting their /home/USER directory. (example, they cant cd to /, the main filesystem dir).

Does anyone know how to do this? Would I need a special type of shell?

By the way I am a linux newbie, so try to explain some of what you are saying.

Thanks,

Jaws

You would need more than a shell. You would need some very basic programs like ls and cd, at the very least.
