I want to create virtual boxes in which I can give root rights to other people and I want to be sure that they can't break other boxes. AGAIK if you have root you can escape chroot'ed directory. Another problems that root can have direct access to devices. I don't want to allow it. Good solution is really independant virtual boxes which are run from one real. This is what FreeBSD's jails provides. User-mode linux kernel seems to allow it too but I'm not sure how stable is it and if there are exist any limitations. -- Ilya Martynov AGAVA Software Company, http://www.agava.com
