Re: [cobalt-users] ssh and virtual sites.



Cary,

It would appear that the user you are trying to su to does not have shell access, thus the error message you're getting. Restricting shell access not only disallows telnet access, but would also restrict ssh access. If you are using ssh instead of telnet (ie. telnet is disabled), then you could grant this user shell access and resolve your issue.

do I have to initiate ssh for the virtual site(s) as well? Is this secure?
How would I go about doing this. I've been scouring the archives and the web
for an answer, but I'm new and I'm sure the answer is staring me in the
face.
