Source: chrootuid Section: admin Priority: optional Maintainer: Javier Fernandez-Sanguino Pen~a Build-Depends: debhelper (>> 3.0.0) Standards-Version: 3.9.1.0 Homepage: http://ftp.porcupine.org/pub/security/index.html Package: chrootuid Architecture: any Depends: ${shlibs:Depends} Description: Run commands in restricted environments Chrootuid makes it easy to run a network service at low privilege level and with restricted file system access. The daemons have access only to their own directory tree, and run under a low-privileged userid. . In the past it has been used to run the gopher and www (world-wide web) network. It can be used nowadays also for proxy servers. The arrangement greatly reduces the impact of possible loopholes in network software.
