[Freeipa-users] sftp HBAC

[Kevin Vasko]

Try to make this simple.

Have a HBAC, have the "Who" set to a user, have the "Accessing" set to
a
server.

Have the "Via Service" set to "sshd". The user can ssh into the server
no
issue.

I want to limit this user to only being able to sftp into this server (no
direct ssh).

If I swap the "Via Service" from the sshd service to sftp that user is now
denied. They cannot access the server via sftp or ssh. I would expect it to
deny ssh access but allow sftp.

I did copy "cp /etc/pam.d/sshd /etc/pam.d/sftp" as I saw it mentioned here
https://freeipa-users.redhat.narkive.com/tFQFZmNu/hbac-service-allowed-de...
but that didn't seem to work.

Can you point me to the instructions on how to make the HBAC work with a
particular service (e.g. sftp)?
