* Various man page cleanup:mpp1999-08-159-41/+45
| | | | | | | | | | - Sort xrefs - FreeBSD.ORG -> FreeBSD.org - Be consistent with section names as outlines in mdoc(7) - Other misc mdoc cleanup. PR: doc/13144 Submitted by: Alexy M. Zelkin <phantom@cris.net>

* Fixed $Id$.bde1999-07-311-3/+3
| | | | | | | Removed POSIX.1/NetBSD markup (braces) for NAME_MAX, etc. We don't define this. Most FreeBSD man pages hard-code the limits; in fact, utimes.2 recently became the only file in libc/sys/*.2 that mentions NAME_MAX. There probably should be mandoc macros for this.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a seriously beefed up chroot kind of thing. The process is jailed along the same lines as a chroot does it, but with additional tough restrictions imposed on what the superuser can do. For all I know, it is safe to hand over the root bit inside a prison to the customer living in that prison, this is what it was developed for in fact: "real virtual servers". Each prison has an ip number associated with it, which all IP communications will be coerced to use and each prison has its own hostname. Needless to say, you need more RAM this way, but the advantage is that each customer can run their own particular version of apache and not stomp on the toes of their neighbors. It generally does what one would expect, but setting up a jail still takes a little knowledge. A few notes: I have no scripts for setting up a jail, don't ask me for them. The IP number should be an alias on one of the interfaces. mount a /proc in each jail, it will make ps more useable. /proc/<pid>/status tells the hostname of the prison for jailed processes. Quotas are only sensible if you have a mountpoint per prison. There are no privisions for stopping resource-hogging. Some "#ifdef INET" and similar may be missing (send patches!) If somebody wants to take it from here and develop it into more of a "virtual machine" they should be most welcome! Tools, comments, patches & documentation most welcome. Have fun...

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unlike other filesystem objects, symbolic links do not have an owner, group, access mode, times, etc. Instead, these attributes are taken from the directory that contains the link. The only attributes returned from an lstat() that refer to the symbolic link itself are the file type (S_IFLNK), size, blocks, and link count (always 1). This is bogus, and disagrees with the implementation and symlink(7). Removed it. PR: docs/10269 Submitted by: Tolik <tolik@sibptus.tomsk.ru>
