I might be wrong, but didn't someone say this could be done with telnet as well? It would require files to be copied under the chroot in a structure similiar to the system. Mail would be a problem, if it resided on the same system. Certainly a desirable thing to do for shell users and would save time chmod'ing files and directories. Time to dig back now...
