Re: [Chrootssh-users] chroot not doing anything

[James D. <jd...@la...>]

Can you explain a little more? If it is applying the patch, and 
everything is installed correctly, you should be able to test this by 
placing a '.' in the user's home directory entry in /etc/passwd. If you 
haven't built the chroot but want to test if the patch is working, try 
logging in, you will be rejected right away with a '.' in place and you 
will log in fine without it.
