What is jailshell?

Jailshell is a very limited shell that allows clients to logon to your server via SSH. It limits them to their home directories, keeping the rest of your files on your server from being viewed.

How to enable jailshell from WHM?

You can enable jailshell as the default shell for new and modified accounts by going to Tweak Settings under Server Setup on the WHM main page. Scroll down to “System” and check the box next to ” Use jailshell as the default shell for all new accounts and modified accounts”.
