problem with chroot

Hi,
I tried to use chroot.

I insert this command at the /etc/profile file because I want that every time a user will be log on to the system he will be restricted.
the problem is that this command is working only if I log on as a root, because I don't have permissions to use chroot from other user.
How can I solve this , is there way to write in the file something that will say " maniooulate this command as if u are a root or something" ?

and another quest', I notice that when in a root I manioulate the chroot, I can write exit and this is exit from the chroot.

I wantnot to enable the user to exit the restricted area, is there way in which when he write exit to finish the task / terminal.

Please do not post the same thread in more than one forum. Picking the most relevant forum and posting it once there makes it easier for other members to help you and keeps the discussion all in one place.

Hi ef_, welcome to LQ.org!

If you are talking about restricting users who log in remotely, then check out this site for a good chroot solution.

And, in the future, if you see that there's a more appropriate forum for your post, then click where it says 'Report this post to a moderator' and ask that they move your thread.

Enjoy!
