1) I think cvs needs /dev/null or /dev/zero, not sure which one
/jail/dev/Zero does not exist on my system.
2) did you copy the libraries for cvs as well? (did you use jk_cp to
copy the binaries into the jail?)
Here I have a conceptual problem... Actually, I wanted to keep my cvs tree outside the jail. To prevent users browsing inside it. So their only access would be via checkouts, which are controlled by cvsnt access control lists.
Is it possible to keep the cvs tree outside the jail at all? Or should I use a different method? I don't really understand how cvs access over ssh works. Does it mean the cvs binaries need to be accessible from the jail user's shell? It seems like a cath22 situation... I end up having to put my whole system in the jail, since eg cvs runs some scripts, which need php, and which need access to the mysql db driving my drupal site (for checking commit access control).
Thanks for your swift reply!!!!
