I was looking back through the NetBSD 1.6.1 INSTALL document
and I see under "Security Changes" that
    named
    ntpd
    sshd
are supposed to be running in a chroot environment.
I see that the users and groups have been added, but under
PS they are running as root.
    postfix 
is running under it's own user name though.

Is there any configuration required to get these services running chrooted or is it supposed to be automatic?

The following packages have been upgraded via pkgsrc
    openssh from 3.4    to openssh-3.7.1.2nb1
    postfix from 1.1.11 to postfix-2.0.14

Thanks,
   Roger
