I tried running bind9 in stable as chroot and setuid. setuid nobody it won't run at all. chroot if runs but doesn't actually listen on any port. It will only run as root for some reason. Is this a known bug or am I doing something wrong. Its on woody running on a powerpc (beige g3).
Did you try checking the Chroot-BIND HOWTO http://www.linuxsecurity.com/docs/LDP/Chroot-BIND-HOWTO.html
Quoting from there: |This document describes installing the BIND 9 nameserver to run in a |chroot jail and as a non-root user, to provide added security and |minimise the potential effects of a security compromise.
Also check the BTS if you are not sure whether it is a bug or not http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=bind9
