I have a RedHat 6.0 x86 server which is serving a number of minor =
things, which I wish to add shell access to.

I'm currently running sshd and am quite happy with it, the exceptiong =
being that I am unable to make sshd perform a chroot for shell account =
users.

I have been reading man pages and howto's, many of which discuss sshd or =
chroot, but never the two together.

Is this not an option?  Or an I missing the point?

Mike.
