	This was during the time of extreme security paranoia.  Chroot
	(under sysVr3.1 on a 3b2) worked out quite well, including
	a complete seperate set of /dev entries, links to most /usr stuff
	(/bin and /etc stuff had to be duplicated).  A number of programs
	were modified to work across the chroot partitions, including
	the conferencing system, and the party program.  Email was
	strictly within the chrooted area.
	It was finally removed due to other policy decisions, not because
	of unworkability.
