chroot --> .ssh Directory ownership

futureweb

Regular Pleskian
Hi there,

we are using chroot SSH access for our customers. Some of them want to connect by ssh keys.
Works like a charm if I create a ".ssh" directory with *user*:*psaserv* and add the Key

But how can I automate this?

When I create a .ssh Directory within /var/www/vhosts/chroot/ directory it's owned by root (or whatever User I give it) - so it will never be the User where the chroot skeleton gets copied to ...

How can I tell Plesk to create this directory as the User it's created for?

Hope someone can help me on this!

Thank you
Andreas
