OpenSSH 3.2.2 released : chroot

[Ben Lindstrom]

Out of interest why do you feel it's required to do chroot() at the
OpenSSH level?  Why don't you invest time into a shell that does the
chroot() for you?  That would work for telnet, ssh, etc. No need to
clutter up OpenSSH with options that can easily be implemented at a higher
level.
