Re: Running REALbasic apps in a chroot environment

[Keith Hutchison <thinker at balance-infosystems dot com>]

Hi Yves

Like running named ( a dns server ) in a jail so that if named gets 
broken into the cracker only sees where
named is running.

I am not concerned about someone cracking into the realbasic compiled 
app,
I am chasing down the idea that Tim Jones suggested about adding 
libraries to
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Since setting up a chroot environment means you have to copy in a small 
system
this would be one way around the current issue I have with ld-linux.so.2

eg
mail:/etc/postfix # export PATH=/lib/realbasic:$PATH
mail:/etc/postfix # export 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib/realbasic:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
mail:/etc/postfix # /bin/realbasic/helloworld.mwrb
/bin/realbasic/helloworld.mwrb: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: version 
`GLIBC_PRIVATE' not found (required by /lib/realbasic/libc.so.6)
