Re: schroot - chroot for any users

To avoid messing with xhost I decided to rely on ssh X forwarding -- I setup sshd to be started in chroot on some port like 2222, and then made a host alias like node22chr (instead of plain node22), adjusted .ssh/config to use port 2222 whenever sshing to any node*chr, and thus effectively running any app in a chroot on another node in the cluster was a plain
ssh -Y node22chr matlab
indeed it requers to setup chroot in a bit fuller way -- user accounts, restart on boot, etc; but it had its benefit: I had fully functional chrooted environment which looked the same as the original host (but of different architecture) for any user who logged in into node22chr instead of node22 ;-)
