Hey Everyone,
Ok quick question. This was working just fine for me two weeks ago and no changes made to my sshd_config file now all of a sudden when my chroot user goes to log into the ftp they cannot log in anymore. It just kicks the user out during the log in process. Here is a copy of my sshd_config
# Package generated configuration file
# See the sshd(8) manpage for details
# What ports, IPs and protocols we listen for
Port 22
# Use these options to restrict which interfaces/protocols sshd will bind to
#ListenAddress ::
#ListenAddress 0.0.0.0
Protocol 2
# HostKeys for protocol version 2
HostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
HostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key
#Privilege Separation is turned on for security
UsePrivilegeSeparation yes
# Lifetime and size of ephemeral version 1 server key
KeyRegenerationInterval 3600
ServerKeyBits 768

# Uncomment if you don't trust ~/.ssh/known_hosts for RhostsRSAAuthentication

This last section here is what I used to chroot this user to their home directory. Like I said before everything has been working great up until today. I haven't touched the server or any of it's config files I work on the policy if it ain't broke don't fix it so since it was working great I decided to just leave it alone and let it do it's job. Thanks in advance for all help with this.
