Did you make sure you have a /etc/passwd file inside your chroot filesystem?

Yes I did along with /etc/group and etc/shadow. I even mounted /etc within in the chroot file system. Didn't make a difference.

I'm trying to run tomcat in chroot jail using jsvc. I can run tomcat inside chroot by its self without any problems. I also can run tomcat using jsvc as various users outside of chroot. When I attempt to run tomcat with jsvc inside of a chroot jail, I get the folowing error message:

jsvc error: Invalid user name 'named' specified

No mater what user I specify I get the same error message. I assume that jsvc is getting an error when changing the processes uid. Obviously, I am missing user information inside my jail. I've tried adding copies of /etc/group, /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow but that didn't work. (not really surprised).


So, how are users verified and what do I need to do to get them rcognized in the chroot jail?
