We run policyd v1.81 as user/group policyd, chroot to an empty
directory /var/empty/policyd/. But then policyd isn't able to
resolve my MYSQLHOST hostname. If I use ip-address it works fine.
It complains:
policyd: connecting to mysql database:
policyd: mysql_real_connect(): Unknown MySQL server host
'mysqldserver.mydomain.net' (3)
It seems it requires access to nscd's socket /var/run/nscd/socket,
so if I bind mount this to /var/empty/policyd/var/run/nscd/socket,
everything works fine.
mount -o bind /var/run/nscd /var/empty/policyd/var/run/nscd
Any ideas for how to avoid this ?
I've tried putting a hosts file, resolv.conf and nsswitch into the chroot/etc,
setting up a more complete chroot with dev/null, dev/random, to no avail..
