Re: [Jailkit-users] SuSE problem

[Steve Follmer]

So the added /dev/null will be part of the jailkit 2.4 release?

One question. Lines like...

executables = /usr/lib/sftp-server, /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server,
/usr/lib/misc/sftp-server

Are those intended to list several possible locations for sftp-server.
For a given distro, only one of those would have sftp-server? So that
could be changed to

executables = /usr/lib/sftp-server, /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server,
/usr/lib/misc/sftp-server, /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server
...since SUSE apparently installs sftp-server in /usr/lib/ssh/

Should we have a SUSE optimized file say the above, or merely say
executables = /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server

I'd vote for the longer line, if the extra locations don't hurt. SUSE
might have alternative packages, or something might move in SUSE 10.3 etc.

Indeed, one could reason that changes like adding extra locations for
sftp-server, could simply go in the main jailkit distribution and not
require a distro-specific directory.

I'll look through jk_init.ini and see if openSUSE 10.2 has the rest of
the executables jailkit needs in suitable locations.
