This doesn't appear very practical. With hundreds of users (I'm over 500 now), I'd have to have hundres of copies of the shared libraries and executables that every user needs. The current versions of wu-ftpd don't need that to support chroot'ed users. The author also claims that it might be possible to break out of the chroot, and this is something I simply can't afford. To add extra complication to the issue, the chrootsh patch is maintained by a single individual. This makes it a little tougher to support if a new rpm comes out from Red Hat. I wouldn't be able to use up2date but would have to get the source rpm, download the latest patch from sourceforge, and hope that it's compatible. If it isn't yet, I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
