You probably only need to run the bits that need php4-mysql in the chroot. I think that would be WordPress and maybe apache (unless you can tell apache to chroot before spawning the php module). MySQL connects over a standard network socket, so WordPress can access it regardless of whether it's chrooted or not. Disclaimer: I have never run WordPress on my computer and I know very little about PHP or MySQL. Daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
