Hi Corey,

Thanks for your try.
That's what I need yeah, "a (nearly) bullet proof chroot" to launch one
service.
And I want to use VServer as my "bullet proof chroot".

 i think vcontext.

OK, but is there any assisted way of knowing exactly what I need to keep,
just knowing the application I need ?
