Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] chroot jailed users

[Heiko Z. <he...@zu...>]

Dean,

Did you try the mount command?
I was able to successfully mount over the symlink and saw the correct  
contents of the folder.

If this testing works, then I'll get rid of the symlink and use "mount  
--bind" instead. We're using this now for a couple of other  
directories, but seems like I forgot to change it for /jail.
