I am trying to create a chroot so I can run programs in a restricted environment. I also want the programs to deal with files (input or output). When I run programs in the chroot jail as user nobody, I get segmentation faults. If I run the program in the jail but not as nobody, everything works properly. Why is this happening, and how can I fix it?

Try running your program under strace and past the last bit back into your question if it looks interesting. For example: strace ./my_prog – ed. Sep 14 '11 at 15:38
