sshd_config access keywords question.

Subject: sshd_config access keywords question.
Date: Mon, 9 Oct 2006 11:55:19 -0700 (PDT)


Hi,

I'm running OpenSSH 4.4 on OpenBSD 3.9-stable and I'm trying to configure ssh 
access to my machine. I'd like to implement a relatively simple access policy, 
in my opinion, using the AllowUsers, AllowGroups, DenyUsers, and DenyGroups 
keywords, but I haven't managed.


The policy I'm trying to implement is that access should be allowed for users 
in the group ssh, for users in the group lanssh if they are connecting from my 
network, and for nobody else. Is this even possible?


The configuration most likely to succeed that I've tried so far is

AllowGroups ssh lanssh@192.168.0.*

but the latter identifier is just ignored.


I would even settle for writing the individual usernames that are allowed 
lanssh access in sshd_config, but I've been unable to do that too. For 
instance, for a privileged user lanuser in group lanssh, the following

DenyUsers lanuser@!192.168.0.*
AllowGroups ssh lanssh

doesn't prevent lanuser from logging in from other hosts.


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Emerson
