We'll be putting all the jail()ed servers on one regular filesystem (different subdirectories). The binaries for all the jails will be hardlinked together and chflag'ed noschg. The system will be running at a securelevel such that the chflag'ing can't be undone. Updating jails is an interesting problem and we'll be solving it with a custom perl program. Users will be able to customize their setup by breaking symbolic links. The ispserver folks seem to be making extensive use of union mounts. I didn't think that worked?!? -Dave * Hello David, * * Monday, October 01, 2001, 9:14:46 AM, you wrote: * * > In any case, if anyone needs a jail()ed virtual host, send email * > to support@idiom.com.
