View Full Version : Securing /home/sites from SSH/telnet users

We have a small number of SSH users, and wouldn't want anybody but the admin/root user to be able to do a "ls -l" on the home/sites directory. For that matter, /home as well.

Any ideas on this? One option would simply be to set /home and /home/sites to drwx--x--x. What side-effects are this likely to cause? And are there any other directories one could/should "hide" in this manner?

thanks,

Johan
