PAM_CHROOT(8) FreeBSD System Manager's Manual PAM_CHROOT(8) NAME pam_chroot -- Chroot PAM module SYNOPSIS [service-name] module-type control-flag pam_chroot [arguments] DESCRIPTION The chroot service module for PAM chroots users into either a predeter- mined directory or one derived from their home directory. If a user's home directory as specified in the passwd structure returned by getpwnam(3) contains the string "/./", the portion of the directory name to the left of that string is used as the chroot directory, and the por- tion to the right will be the current working directory inside the chroot tree. Otherwise, the directories specified by the dir and cwd options (see below) are used. also_root Do not hold user ID 0 exempt from the chroot requirement. always Report a failure if a chroot directory could not be derived from the user's home directory, and the dir option was not specified. cwd=directory Specify the directory to chdir(2) into after a successful chroot(2) call. dir=directory Specify the chroot directory to use if one could not be de- rived from the user's home directory.
