Perl chroot Function
Description
This function works like the system call by the same name: it makes the named directory the new root directory for all further pathnames that begin with a / by your process and all its children. For security reasons, this function, which is identical to the system chroot( ) function, is restricted to the superuser and cannot be undone.
If FILENAME is omitted, then it does a chroot to $_
Syntax
Following is the simple syntax for this function −
chroot EXPR chroot
Return Value
This function returns 0 on failure and 1 on success.
