Each user has their own jail? I solved a similar issue with jail and syslog adding a "-a /home/jail/dev/log" parameter to syslog startup. >From the syslogd man page: -a socket Using this argument you can specify additional sockets from that syslogd has to listen to. This is needed if you're going to let some daemon run within a chroot() environment. You can use up to 19 additional sockets. If your environment needs even more, you have to increase the symbol MAXFUNIX within the syslogd.c source file. An example for a chroot() daemon is described by the people from OpenBSD at http://www.psionic.com/papers/dns.html.
