The chroot dir was constant parameter in softflowd.h. #ifndef PRIVDROP_CHROOT_DIR # define PRIVDROP_CHROOT_DIR "/var/empty" #endif "/var/empty" exists in (Open)BSD. On the other hand the directory does not exist in (Ubuntu) Linux. I added "--with-chrootdir" option in configure.ac. It is able to change privdrop chroot directory. If you want to change PRIVDROP_CHROOT_DIR to "/var/run/softflowd/chroot", please type as follows : "configure --with-chrootdir=/var/run/softflowd/chroot" thanks, Hitoshi Irino From irino at sfc.wide.ad.jp Sat Nov 26 22:06:14 2011 From: irino at sfc.wide.ad.jp (Hitoshi Irino) Date: Sat, 26 Nov 2011 20:06:14 +0900 Subject: [netflow-tools] What is criteria of next release?

Sounds like a good idea. I'll try to take a look this week and make a release. Thanks, Damien
