Hi All, I have noticed that the documentation (the CHROOT file), explicitly states that you must place a copy of the chroot_helper binary within the jail. In my testing I have found that things *appear* to work fine without it. So is the requirement a peculiarity of certain implementations or is there a security risk created by its absence? Thanks, Carl. |
