Actually this is called a chroot/jail and uses a seperate partition to limit the amount of access given to any one process provided it is run as a unique user. A little tip from my experiences, each service is unique (ie. req's specific libs to operate. These must be included in the jail. -- Jesse Jacobs, Supa' Noob :) -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
