Create ftp/ssh user virtualmin

General Discussion

Hi all.

I installed virtualmin in Centos 5.3, I can create new virtual servers, the admin user have login access using email, ftp y SSH, but when I create other user for the same domain, only can be ftp and email or onye ftp. There is not the option for allow ssh too.

I used both options for create a new user: create user for this server and add a website ftp user…

But in other server in my company (I didnt install) when I go to Add a user to this server I can select ssh access…

Is there sometime wrong or should I do by other way?

Thanks

I found the solution in other post of the forum:

  1. Login as root and go to System Customization -> Custom Shells, and select “Custom shells below”

  2. For the shell /bin/bash, check the boxes in the Enabled? and Mailbox? columns, then click Save.

  3. Any user can now go to Edit Mail and FTP Users, and create a new user. Under Other user permissions in the Login permission field, select “Email, FTP and SSH”, then click Create.

Now I have the doubt about if this affect the security of the server…?

Thanks
