A misunderstanding one :-) Chroot jails the server right from the beginning, and hence all the data that you want you serve *must* be inside that jail. Actually, that is the whole point of chroot. For instance, lets suppose you use "Chroot /var/www". That path would becomes the root directory for the web server, so you'd have to configure "Directory /foro" (for /var/www/foro), and of course, you couldn't access anything outside /var/www. If the server wouldn't behave like that, the chroot facility wouldn't make sense at all. By the way, the only thing the server can access outside the jail are the log files (it uses a little trick to make that possible), so you can configure them in /var/log/cherokee if you want to. Good luck.. -- Greetings, alo. _______________________________________________ Cherokee mailing list [email protected] http://cherokee-project.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cherokee
