I mean, yeah, but I don't want to do that. Partially because I don't want the friction, and partially because that won't work with any other tools that tunnel over ssh (e.g. sftp).
- eitland 7y agoThere will be friction, but sftp and port tunneling - which are my most used fwatures besides plain ssh - should be possible? I mean either you sftp to a shared folder that can be accessed from your regular user as well or you use a staging area with a cron job (or you load/unload the staging area manually.)
- eridius 7y agoIf I'm sftp'ing to my server it's because I want to access my files. Not a special shared folder that I then have to separately ssh in, su to the real user, and move into place. I'm not deploying a website so a staging area isn't applicable. This is just a VPS that I use for various purposes.
- dahfizz 7y agoIf your ssh user has the right priveleges, you can read and write your real users files as the ssh user just fine. I do get that this isn't ideal though.
