Hi Folks,
I am using version openssh-4.6p1 in solaris server.
Consider my solaris PC is configured as multihomed with two NIC.
e69001% ifconfig -a
ce0: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 2
inet 172.23.87.109 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 172.23.87.255
ce1: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 3
inet 192.168.2.133 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.2.255
I mean my PC has two IP address. By making use of ListenAddress in
sshd_config file, i can able to listen ssh/ sftp request from both IP
addresses.
e69001# grep "ListenAddress" sshd_config
#ListenAddress 0.0.0.0
#ListenAddress ::
ListenAddress 172.23.87.109
ListenAddress 192.168.2.133
If we do sftp to both the IP address from different machine, it will
pointout the same default root directory.
From machine1:
tballraker7# ./sftp svplus@192.168.2.133
Connecting to 192.168.2.133...
svplus@192.168.2.133's password:
sftp> pwd
Remote working directory: /usr/users/svplus
sftp > quit
From machine2:
cwmsent51# ./sftp svplus@172.23.87.109
Connecting to 172.23.87.109...
svplus@172.23.87.109's password:
sftp> pwd
Remote working directory: /usr/users/svplus
sftp > quit
Here, the default directory will be defined based on the login username.
But, Is it possible to assign/ configure different default directory for
each IP address with same login username?

It's a shame to have to hard-configure both IP addresses in this config
file -- especially if you are getting them dynamically through DHCP. I
wonder if there is a different way to enable sshd on both NICs without
specifying the IP address...
