Talking about David's efforts at porting Capsicum to Linux, I've already implemented support for Capsicum in OpenSSH. It shouldn't be complicated to enable it on Linux systems that support it. I would very like to see capsicum integrated into mainline, as it's a high quality sandbox solution, that will benefit a lot of server software that implement privilege separation. > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe > linux-security-module" in > the body of a message to [email protected] > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- This message is strictly personal and the opinions expressed do not represent those of my employers, either past or present. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-api" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
