Hi all,

I'm setting up a web server, and I'd like each user to have their own
virtual server so they can, as root, do whatever changes they want
without it effecting the server or other users as a whole. I've heard
this being called 'jails' on BSD, but I can't find the terminology for
this in Linux.

Can someone point me to a howto, faq, or something that'll help me
impliment this? I'm looking at running either Slackware 10, SuSE 9.1,
or Fedora Core 2 on the server.

Thanks,

- Ringo -
