Question

What are the differences between Normal and Jailed Shell?

Answer

Normal Shell provides full shell access. Jailed Shell acts as a container that prevents users from accessing or listing files and directories in other users’ home directories on the server. Some functions, such as EasyApache Containers, require full shell access.

Please note that on CloudLinux systems, CloudLinux's "Link Traversal Protection" must be enabled to enable Jailed Shell.
