Topic: GUI won't connect
Hi, I have just installed MSS onto Ubuntu 11.04 but I'm not sure if it's working properly. I've modified the sftp_config file to suit and restarted mysecureshell but I'm not sure if it's really working. I can SFTP in but do not get chroot'd to my home directory and when I try to log in to the GUI all I get is:
Try to connect on localhost:22
Connected
Try to open admin connection
Unable to lauch admin connection
Not connected
...so I'm wondering now if MSS is actually running or if my previous test with filezilla were simply connecting to the vanilla openssh server.
I simply want a SFTP server that locks each user account to their home directory. I'm not a Linux expert but can generally get about.
Can anyone help?
My sftp_config is:
