Description Matus UHLAR - fantomas 2011-02-10 15:38:07 UTC

when admin decides to maintain the chroot environment by himself, skip chroot check in startup script via check_chroot() function.
some of the checkd (/var/log, /var/log/named, /dev/zero) are often not needed.
skip the check if user(admin) doesn't wish so.
apparently CHROOT_NOCHECK conf.d variable could be set up to indicate so.

Reproducible: Always
