One can only chroot as root, but root squashing will stop root from entering secure homedirs. Running setuid before chroot fixes the squashing, but then you can't chroot anymore. The easy way out is mode 710 and setgid, chroot, setuid. Linux has setfsuid for this purpose. That said, I wouldn't normally run nameservers with nfs personally, I like them widely distributed which kinda clinches with nfs. -- Sten Spans "There is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in."
