RE: [Jailkit-users] Error parsing jk_lsh.ini

[Jon Gullidge]

Do you want to use jk_lsh or bash as your shell?
I'd suggest changing /usr/local/chroot/etc/passwd
And changing the shell from jk_lish to /bin/bash
Just make sure you init basicshell:
jk_init -j /usr/local/chroot basicshell

HTH :)

Subject: [Jailkit-users] Error parsing jk_lsh.ini

Greetings,
I am trying to set up jail kit and having little success.

The programs appear to have built and installed ok. (Ubuntu 9.10 desktop 64bit)

I followed the example for creating the jail dir, etc.
The fact that jk_addjailuser (per the example) told me I should be using jk_jailuser was indeed amusing.
I managed to get to the point of attempting to access the jailed user. In syslog I get this error:
Nov 14 18:01:08 localhost jk_chrootsh[21642]: now entering jail /usr/local/chroot for user zenptest (1003)
Nov 14 18:01:08 localhost jk_lsh[21642]: jk_lsh version 2.10, started
Nov 14 18:01:08 localhost jk_lsh[21642]: did neither find a section 'zenptest', nor 'group zenptest' nor 'DEFAULT' in configfile /etc/jailkit/jk_lsh.ini
Nov 14 18:01:08 localhost sshd[21582]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session closed for user zenptest

There is no output to /var/log/daemon.log.

Here are the commands I used to create the jail: (user is zenptest)
./configure
make
sudo make install
mkdir /usr/local/chroot
chown root:root /usr/local/chroot
chmod 0755 /usr/local/chroot
jk_init -j /usr/local/chroot jk_lsh
jk_init -j /usr/local/chroot rsync
jk_jailuser --jail=/usr/local/chroot zenptest --verbose
vi /usr/local/chroot/etc/jailkit/jk_lsh.ini
  (...see file content later in this mesg...)
killall jk_socketd
jk_socketd
tail -F /var/log/daemon.log
tail -F /var/log/auth.log # in a separate window, of course

Here is the /etc/jailkit/jk_lsh.ini that cannot be parsed:
[zenptest]
executables=/usr/bin/rsync
[group zenptest]
executables=/usr/bin/rsync


Any clues are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Art
