HI! after sucessfully testing nntpcache in a "normal" Linux environment I wanted to test it run chrooted. I copied the necessary libs to [jail]/libs and necessary config files to [jail]/etc. The jail looks like this: cachedir: total 262 drwx------ 3 nntpcach nntpcach 1024 Feb 22 13:00 ./ drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 1024 Feb 17 17:07 ../ -rw-r--r-- 1 nntpcach nntpcach 4 Feb 22 12:59 cache.base -rw-r--r-- 1 nntpcach nntpcach 16781312 Feb 22 13:00 cache.mmap -rw-r--r-- 1 nntpcach nntpcach 4 Feb 22 13:00 nntpcache.pid.DEFAULT:119 -rw-r--r-- 1 nntpcach nntpcach 4244 Feb 22 13:00 nntpcache.stats drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 Dec 3 19:48 pgp/ dev: total 2 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 Feb 21 16:31 ./ drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 1024 Feb 17 17:07 ../ srw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 Feb 15 17:54 log= crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 Feb 21 16:31 null etc: total 6 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 Feb 22 12:59 ./ drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 1024 Feb 17 17:07 ../ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 27 Feb 22 12:45 host.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 537 Feb 22 12:42 hosts -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 59 Feb 15 17:52 passwd -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 45 Feb 22 12:43 resolv.conf http: total 2 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 Feb 17 17:07 ./ drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 1024 Feb 17 17:07 ../ lib: total 2853 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 Feb 22 12:38 ./ drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 1024 Feb 17 17:07 ../ -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 149372 Feb 15 18:09 ld-linux.so.2* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2478585 Feb 15 18:09 libc.so.6* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 106712 Feb 22 12:37 libnsl.so.1* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 168956 Feb 22 12:35 libresolv.so.2* usr: total 3 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 1024 Feb 15 18:06 ./ drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 1024 Feb 17 17:07 ../ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 Feb 15 18:05 bin/ But it seems that I still have problems with the name resolving.
