I am trying to connect to my Linux server.

After entering the password it is showing below output:

Last Logan: Mon Jun 24 12:22:48 2013 from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
/bin/bash: No such file or directory
Connection to xxx.xxx.x.xx closed.

How do I connect to the server?

you are trying to enter your server as a user privileges and you see /bin/bash file. When you chroot, you can reach /bin/bash directroy. And you can add your user in sudo.

Then you should see directory /home/username/bin/bash/

Edit :

When you chroot, the named directory becomes /. The correct shell path inside the chroot is then /bin/bash, not /home/username/bin/bash.

You will also need to make sure there's enough other stuff inside the chroot for the system to work. You can test this with sudo chroot /home/username /bin/bash and see what works and what doesn't

And also there is good information about chroot configuration

Your user is associated with an incorrect shell. The path to the associated shell "/bin/bash" doesn't exist on the system.

Correct your user's shell from the root or ask the administrator to do it.
