Does anybody know how to disable the ls/dir command outside somebody's site map, I've been on a raq which had it

for example:
i'm having a site on a raq and i want to see the source of another site, I just go to /home/sites en with ls i can see which other sites are running on that machine. But I want to disable it so nobody can acces somebody's site

The only way to do it is setting up chrooted environment, which is way more trouble than could be worth on the RaQ. Better off doing that on a generic Linux/BSD box.

You'll be able to see the contents of all site /web dirs, as they're all read-enabled anyway. But the group permissions will keep you from looking in other user dirs, site log/cert dirs, etc.

No good way to keep people from seeing the contents of /home/sites though...

do you think a jailed environment will work? Maybe that's a solution :) but it's some work


I saw your reply somewhere else :( never mind...

why not chmod 711 /home

Just a thought:)

There's a LOT of stuff under /home...

Also, I'm not sure that the webserver would have read access...?

That's the solution, I did it for /home/sites/ and /home/.sites/ and its ok
