Re: [Jailkit-users] Jail has wrong ownership

[Olivier Sessink]

No experience with ISPConfig, but if you have terminal access it is an easy fix.

you can run 'chown root:root /path/to/jail' and that will fix the problem. jk_check -j /path/to/jail will report if there are more issues.

If there are multiple directories affected, you can even run:

chown -R root:root /path/to/jail

chown jaileduser:group /path/to/jail/path/to/home

Hi,

 

We are running ISPConfig, and one of the jails (webxxx) somehow is owned by the jailed user, rather than root:root.  We thought there was a way to fix this, but we can’t seem to find the documentation for it online.  Would anyone know how to do this?

 

Basically, we /think/ the sequence was:

Change a bit in the chroot to make it no longer a chroot (or be able to edit it). 
Fix the folder ownership.
Reset the bit to lock the jail again.

Does that sound familiar to anyone?

 

Thanks!
