User Creationg : ssh/sftp user jail to $HOME only


I need help on adding user , yes add user as normal with command line
useradd -d /export/home/user2 -m -s /bin/bash -c "User2 Owner" user2

the problem is once user2 ssh/sftp to the box, user2 is able to go and read /export/home/user1 , the question is what is the right way to add user which only can read his own $HOME folder only

Hi.

I already asked this on
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...n-user-587487/

Basically, when you create an user, his home directory is created with permission 755, that is: everyone can read into it. If you don't want anyone but the owner to read into it you can change the home directory permission to 700 with chmod.

Bye,
Enrico.
