gggshey guys, I want to create a secure fileserver, I need someone to tell me if it'd work;10:11
gggsstart an ssh server for sftp only (disable shell access, chroot to ~/filehost/), use certificate-based auth only (or give accounts random passwords), and I control access by users generating their own ssh key & sending me the .pub key, and adding it manually. Would this work?10:11
head_victimgggs: I'm not really sure about that sort of thing, maybe try the mailing list? I know there's heaps more people who read that than are in the room right now10:13
gggshead_victim: It's probably quicker for me just to give it a go & try (or alternatively: an ftps server), I just wanted to see if someone here had any idea10:16
jargonfactorygggs: yo - ftps would probably be a good idea for a secure file server <- don quote me on this ;)10:30
jargonfactoryhi folks \o.10:33
gggsjargonfactory: That's what thinking now too, but that involves a conventional user/pass auth instead of asymmetric keypairs10:33
ntrly_owgot it fixed10:37
ntrly_owupdated network manager related stuff by usb tethering phone and using mobile internet10:38
jargonfactorygggs: ftps with username/password seems fine to me - uses SSL AFAIK10:40
jargonfactorygggs: unless you want chrooted sftp which does pubkey auth :)10:41
gggsjargonfactory: Yea that was my first thought, it'd be more awesome but probably a lot more work too :)10:42
gggsand I guess using ftps means I can keep a conventional ssh server for LAN use, and the ftps for WAN10:45
jargonfactorygggs: you should be able to key-based auth with ftps (at least that's what this protftpd mod doc tells me) - http://www.castaglia.org/proftpd/modules/mod_sftp.html10:48
gggsjargonfactory: hey you're right, "SFTPAuthorizedUserKeys"10:59
gggsnot sure how many clients would support it11:01
gggsftps sounds like a better option, I could even add something to the crontab that starts and kills the server at specific times11:02
