WHM was updated the other day to v68.0.19. Since then I have found I can no longer sftp with any user accounts in their home directory.
site.com port 22 with 'username' no longer works, but logging in as root to the server's hostname jupiter.site.com still works fine.
This is something that has been working fine for quite some time so I have to believe whatever happened was caused by the recent v68 update. I can't find anything in the logs other than in /var/log/secure :
Dec 9 18:55:23 jupiter sshd[46440]: Accepted publickey for username from 111.111.111.111 port 27649 ssh2
Dec 9 18:55:23 jupiter sshd[46440]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session opened for user username by (uid=0)
Dec 9 18:55:24 jupiter sshd[46765]: subsystem request for sftp
Dec 9 18:55:39 jupiter sshd[46440]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session closed for user username
As shown above it seems like it accepts the connection, but is closed right afterwards.
In contrast this is what the same log shows for my root login to jupiter.site.com :
Dec 9 19:04:53 jupiter sshd[56400]: Accepted publickey for root from 111.111.111.111 port 27823 ssh2
Dec 9 19:04:53 jupiter sshd[56400]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session opened for user root by (uid=0)
Dec 9 19:04:54 jupiter sshd[56400]: subsystem request for sftp
which still works perfectly fine.
Where should I be looking? Was something changed in the recent WHM update which would cause this?
