Description-en: Chroot Pluggable Authentication Module for PAM
This package includes a special (but not thoroughly tested) PAM
module to provide chrooted (restricted) environments for users.
The module tries to provide a transparent wrapper around the
average user, one that puts them in a fake file-system (eg, their
'/' is really /some/where/else).
.
In order to setup this environment in Debian please read the
README.Debian as well as the detailed example provided in
/usr/share/doc/libpam-chroot/examples
