My regular /dev/null is ok, and you are right. I know what the problem 
was. I created one chroot environment and copied it to several 
homedirectories (jails) like this:

debian:~# whoami
root
debian:~# ls -la jail
ls: cannot access jail: No such file or directory
debian:~# ls -la /dev/null
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 2009-03-12 10:27 /dev/null
debian:~# /usr/share/doc/rssh/examples/mkchroot.sh jail
Creating root jail directory.
[...]
NOTE: we make no guarantee that ANY of this will work for you... if it
doesn't, you're on your own.  Sorry!

debian:~# ls -la jail/dev/
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2009-03-12 18:31 .
drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 2009-03-12 18:31 ..
srw-rw-rw- 1 root root    0 2009-03-12 10:27 log
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 2009-03-12 10:27 null
debian:~# cp -r jail/ jail2
debian:~# ls -la jail2/dev/
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2009-03-12 18:32 .
drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 2009-03-12 18:32 ..
srw-r--r-- 1 root root    0 2009-03-12 18:32 log
crw-r--r-- 1 root root 1, 3 2009-03-12 18:32 null
debian:~#

All the tools worked perfectly, I just misused them. And caused a 
hard-to-debug problem for myself...

Thanks for your help again,
