No root access but a chrooted jail. But i can do pretty much everything, like creating process that listen to custom port (need to create a ticket with the host though as they need to know what is being run).

The base server is running Centos 5. regards VK -- The hidden harmony is better than the obvious!! -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
