<listitem>

<para>

</varlistentry>

<varlistentry><term>--chroot </term>

<listitem>

<para>

Before changing to the user ID passed to the --user option, chroot to that user's home directory, i.e. make the kernel pretend to the seeks process that the directory tree starts there. If set up carefully, this can limit the impact of possible vulnerabilities in seeks to the files contained in that hierarchy.

</para>
