Hello Olivier, I have a similar question like Jim's.
I am not worrying about the system files in the virtual enviroment,
but if I jail a few users in the same place, they can access other
users' file each other. It is a big deal at a secret shared hosting
machine.

Is there a solution that when a jailed user run a "ls -la /home", his
can only see his own home directory?
If I prepare a jail for each user, it will be the best security, but
wastes a lot of disk space.

Thanks in advance.
