Package: makejail Version: 0.0.5-5 Severity: normal Hi,
I just used makejail to setup a chrooted apache2 (actually, apache2 is chrooted using mod_chroot, but makejail was used to provide some files into the chroot). It works well, but makejail won't respect attributes used on the chrooted file. For instance, I need to copy the suexec2 into the chroot, and it needs to be setuid root. This is bad in a chroot, but suexec is fairly secure, and I need to run php scripts with a different uid/gid for each vhost. However, makejail won't keep the suid bit. After a quick look to the code, it seems like ACL or extended attributes wouldn't be reproduced either (I'm not a python coder myself, so I may be wrong). Maybe it would make sense to use cp -a to copy the file, relying then on coreutil to preserve every file attribute ?
