Bug Fixes
5- On AlmaLinux and Rocky, SFTP for accounts with full SSH access had been failing since March: the panel looked for the SFTP server at the path Debian uses, and on those systems it lives elsewhere. Connecting with an SFTP client ended immediately. Copies made with scp in its legacy mode and with rsync still worked, which is why the problem stayed hidden.
- Sessions now also start in the account home directory rather than at the root of the jail. A relative copy such as scp server:file.txt . used to fail with No such file or directory while the same copy written with the full path worked.
- Accounts with a custom home directory are covered, and a missing home directory can no longer lock an account out: the session still opens.
- Every helper script under the panel bin directory now ships with the panel package, so an update can no longer leave new code running against old scripts.
- Verified on AlmaLinux 9 and 10, Rocky 9 and 10, Debian 12 and 13, and Ubuntu 22.04, 24.04 and 26.04 by updating from the published release and then exercising SFTP, scp, rsync, uploads, scheduled tasks, FTP transfers and resource limits on each system.
