This article describes how to run ZNC in a chroot-environment on Debian.

1. Compile and install ZNC normally.

Details: Installation

2. Add a new user for ZNC

Example: bouncer

adduser bouncer

3. Login as "bouncer" and configure ZNC normally for this user.

Details: Configuration

4. Change back to "root" and create a directory for the chroot environment.

Example: /var/chroot/

mkdir /var/chroot

5. Create the following subdirectories:

/var/chroot/ +

etc/
dev/
usr/
usr/lib/
usr/local/share
usr/local/bin
usr/local/lib
lib/
home/
home/bouncer

6. Change into the newly created "home"-directory and run:

chown bouncer:bouncer bouncer

7. Change into the newly created "dev"-directory and run:

mknod -m 644 random c 1 8
mknod -m 644 urandom c 1 9
mknod -m 666 null c 1 3

8. Run "ldd znc" to get the names of the needed libs.

Example:

linux-gate.so.1 =>  ()
libdl.so.2 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libdl.so.2 ()
libssl.so.0.9.8 => /usr/lib/i686/cmov/libssl.so.0.9.8 ()
libcrypto.so.0.9.8 => /usr/lib/i686/cmov/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 ()
libstdc++.so.6 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 ()
libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libm.so.6 ()
libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 ()
libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 ()
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 ()
libz.so.1 => /usr/lib/libz.so.1 ()

9. Copy all needed files.

cp /lib/mylibname /var/chroot/lib/
cp /usr/lib/mylibname /var/chroot/usr/lib/

Be sure that you missed no file!

10. You need to copy the following files to get DNS working.

/etc/hosts
/etc/resolv.conf
/lib/libnss_dns.so.2 (May also be somewhere else, ask locate)
/lib/libresolv.so.2 (May also be somewhere else, ask locate)

11. Copy ZNC files.

cp /usr/local/bin/znc* /var/chroot/usr/local/bin/znc
cp -r /usr/local/share/znc /var/chroot/usr/local/share/
cp -r /usr/local/lib/znc /var/chroot/usr/local/lib/

12. Change to "bouncer" user and copy config files.

cp -r /home/bouncer/.znc /var/chroot/home/bouncer/

13. Change to "root" user.

You now can start ZNC with:

start-stop-daemon --chroot /var/chroot/ --chuid bouncer:bouncer --start --exec /usr/local/bin/znc

And stop it with:

start-stop-daemon --chroot /var/chroot/ --chuid bouncer:bouncer --stop --exec /usr/local/bin/znc
