Jail Chroot Project is an attempt to write a tool that builds a chrooted environment. The main goal of Jail is to be as simple as possible, and highly portable. The most difficult step when building a chrooted environment is to set up the right libraries and files. Here, Jail comes to the rescue with a tool that automatically configures and builds all the required files, directories, and libraries.
Jail supports many interesting features:
* Support for multiple users in a single chrooted environment.
* Fully customizable user-shell.
* Support for multiple servers: TelnetD, SSHd, FTPd, and others.
* Easy to install thanks to the environment creation script.
* Should work in any UNIX.
* Ease of porting.
* Allows run any kind of program as a shell.
