Hardlinked directories should be visable in chroot environment, but semi-hardlinked I hope not. Semi-hardlinks could cross mountpoints, so it is posibble to create semi-hardlink without end point (because semi-hardlink will be there after unmounting file system), so it is possible to create semi-hardlink from inside jail to objects from outside jail. That's why it isn't acceptable. There is no such problem with directory-hardlinks, because target object must exists. -- Pawel Jakub Dawidek pawel@xxxxxxxxxxx UNIX Systems Programmer/Administrator http://garage.freebsd.pl Am I Evil?
