How can I disable some commands in SFTP for my clients, like ln & symlink?



I've checked man sftp, but didn't find what I'm searching for.

  • As Michael Hampton said, this doesn't make sense. The only thing I can think to do is disallow access to those commands with Linux ACLs from the users that log onto your server via SFTP and/or, depending if you're running SFTP in a chroot jail, the specific user that is running SFTP.

You did not specify, what SFTP server are you using. I'm assuming the OpenSSH.



The sftp-server (and the compatible internal-sftp) has the -P and -p switches to black/white list certain SFTP requests.



You can use them to disallow the symlink requests:



Subsystem sftp internal-sftp -P symlink
