Is it possible to chroot HAVP?

I am able to chroot the other daemons in my proxy chain - squid and Bfilter.

Does the fact that I have a separate partition/mount point for the havp temp dir (to enable mandatory locking) pose a problem?

Haven't tried, but I guess it could work if you chroot it under the mandatory partition. Let us know if you get some results. :)

Though it needs to be done with external helper, HAVP itself doesn't chroot.

Cheers,
Henrik

Thanks for the tip. I will give it a go and let you know how it turns out.

Any ideas on how to actually test the security of havp once it is in a chroot jail?

Well I'm not sure what is there to test, except reading the source code and trying find some holes.. ;)
