chrootuid-1.3-2mdv2007.0.i586.rpm

Description:

Chrootuid makes it easy to run a network service at low privilege level
and with restricted file system access.
At Eindhoven University, they use this program to run the gopher
and www (world-wide web) network daemons in a minimal environment:
the daemons have access only to their own directory tree,
and run under a low-privileged userid.
The arrangement greatly reduces the impact of possible loopholes
in daemon software.
