Yes, I know the feeling, I've got to document more than I do

When I cd'd to /usr/src/qmt as root:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] qmt]# chroot

I get "chroot: too few arguments
Try 'chroot --help' for more information"

So then I:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] qmt]#chroot --help
Usage: chroot NEWROOT [COMMAND...]
      or:  chroot OPTION
Run COMMAND with root directory set to NEWROOT.

        --help          display this help and exit
        --version       output version information and exit

If no command is given, run ''${SHELL} -I" (default: /bin/sh).

So... Just for kicks, I ran:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] qmt]#chroot '${SHELL} -i' 
And got:

"chroot: cannot change root directory to /bin/bash: Not a directory"


Care to IRC? I just logged in to the #QmailToaster chat room if you'd like. 
Might be easier that way.

"She who must be obeyed" has asked that we run to wally world. But for
future reference, where to I download a Windows XP client for IRC, and
what's the address?

Thanks,
Ron
