SYNOPSISjk_jailuser [OPTIONS] <username> [more usernames]
jk_jailuser --jail=/path/to/jail <username>
DESCRIPTION
The jk_jailuser utility will change the shell of an existing user
<username> to jk_chrootsh and change the home directory to
<jail>/./<previous-home-directory>, and it will add the user to
<jail>/etc/passwd. On *BSD systems this is <jail>/etc/master.passwd and
pwd_mkdb is used to generate the other password files.
The jk_jailuser utility will abort if the <jail>/etc/passwd file is
missing, or if the shell is missing in the jail.
If <previous-home-directory> was already inside the jail, a /./ sepera‐
tor is placed on the correct location in the path. If the previous home
directory was not in the jail, it is changed. In interactive mode you
are asked if you want to move the contents. In non-interactive mode the
contents are only moved if the --move option is specified.
OPTIONS-j --jail=jail
The jail directory to use. This jail should exist, and should
have at least <jail>/etc/passwd
-v --verbose
Will give verbose output
-h --help
The help screen
-m --move
Move the contents of the home directory inside the jail. If in
interactive mode, jk_jailuser will ask if the directory should
be moved if that is necessary. In non-interactive mode this
option is disabled by default.
-n --noninteractive
No user interaction.
-s --shell=shell
The shell to use inside the jail. Defaults to /usr/sbin/jk_lsh
