So, if: 1) You move all the necessary dynamic libraries into the chroot jail 2) You move all the mail accounts into chroot jail 3) Since sending mail involves running a small shell script stub, you'll need to move at least /bin/sh into the chroot jail too and 4) What you end up in your chroot jail isn't much different than what outside of the chroot jail looks like, then what exactly was the point to this chroot jail in the first place? ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: DEDICATED SERVERS only $89!
