If we are serious about security, it seems like a good tool to add to the
collection.
Is there a HOWTO set it up? I didn't find one for NTP. Are all jaildirs
sufficiently similar that a global HOWTO is all one needs to set one up for
NTP? I found one for FreeBSD, but not much for Linux. If I search for HOWTO
chroot rather than HOWTO jaildir, I find some info for BIND. If anybody has
a favorite, please let me know.
from the man page:
-i string, --jaildir=string
Jail directory.
Chroot the server to the directory jaildir This option also implies
that the server attempts to drop root privileges at startup. You
may need to also specify a -u option. This option is only available
if the OS supports adjusting the clock without full root
privileges. This option is supported under Linux, NetBSD and
Solaris.
I wonder why it is -i rather than -j.

These are my opinions. I hate spam.
