I have testuser
and I want that user to be able log-in locally, but not via ssh
. How can I implement that?

Artyom answer is correct. I'd just like to point that there is also the possibility to opt for a 'white-list' approach instead of the 'black-list' one by putting a line like this in /etc/ssh/sshd_config:
AllowUsers AuthorizedUser1 AuthorizedUser2
and reloading ssh service (service ssh restart
)
Then every other user will be denied ssh access (be careful not to lock yourself out ;-) )
-
you can also make access tighter even more by
AllowUser AuthorizedUser1@[ip-address]
I believe. This should only allow that specific user when coming from the mentioned IP address– vrmsApr 5, 2019 at 20:28
