I have no idea where you got that idea, but rssh does not need and
does not use the chroot command.  It does its own chrooting.  What you
have done is to set the location of the directory into which you will
chroot users to "/usr/sbin/chroot /home/usr00020" -- a path that
almost certainly does not exist on your system.  Hence the stat()
failed message.

Please re-read the man page for rssh.conf(5) and the README and CHROOT
files in the source distribution.  Or, if you downloaded the RPMs,
look in /usr/share/doc/rssh* for those files.
