I run apache using dchroot to avoid the most common problems. Breaking a chroot is possible, but not so easy and it's more difficult within dchroot which _should_ drops privileges properly AFAIK. I do that commonly for hosting services where users can run their own php and cgi scripts. That cannot avoid creating shells services, surely but avoid password cracking, use of cron, access to kernel modules and log files, and so on. -- Francesco P.
