Dev, I thank you for your comments below. However, I must say that I don't share your views to saying:
Quote:


Then use dedicated VE for each of them (which is a much hardened chroot protection even compared to grsec) and be happy.


That statement is not practical to give each user dedicated VE. While OpenVZ VE is great I don't think its designed to give each user VE to improve security. VE are used mainly to consolidate servers and offering isolation for those servers. That's why there's tools like GrSecurity, SELinux, IPtables and such to provide additional layer of security for users.

I am not much of an expert in this area and respect your other comments implying GrSecurity is not much of help. So, how about SElinux, RBAC, Running tools like Bastille to harnend the OS. Will they not prove helpful either.

IMO, I think it would be best for someone who can fix the issues regarding GrSecurity and perhaps other tools so that they can be used by used properly with OVZ.

Joe
