This probably involves: - Testing the athena chroot installer available in /mit/debathena/packages/config/athena-chroot, and getting an Athena chroot setup on mega-man (or a sipb-xen VM). - configuring schroot to make sure /mit, /afs, and /tmp are mounted in the chroot and that they forward the KRB5CCNAME and KRBTKFILE environment variables. - writing scripts to replace the sendmail, lastlog, and athmode programs by calling the appropriate program inside the chroot (all three should be very simple wrappers around schroot). - It may be useful to backport schroot from lenny; this for example makes the mountpoint task easier." enhancement closed normal fixed
