| Guest40410 | how can I run an executable in sandbox ? | 02:17 |
| holstein | Guest40410: what executable? what sandbox? | 04:13 |
| Guest40410 | I need to run a program that I'm not sure about it's safety. I need a software to a technique that ensure that the program doesn't change the state of my operating system and my data. | 04:22 |
| Guest40410 | software 'or' a technique | 04:22 |
| holstein | Guest40410: if im not sure, i dont run it.. what program? what sandbox? | 04:23 |
| holstein | Guest40410: i would argue, a live CD is a type of sandbox | 04:24 |
| Guest40410 | sandbox technology exist in softwares on operating system | 04:24 |
| holstein | Guest40410: sure | 04:24 |
| holstein | Guest40410: what are you trying to do? the live CD wont work for you? | 04:24 |
| Guest40410 | sandboxie for example, it is a software for windows | 04:24 |
| holstein | !chroot | 04:25 |
| ubot93 | A chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot | 04:25 |
| holstein | Guest40410: will a live CD not work? | 04:25 |
| Guest40410 | yeah, I knew about chroot, I can even create a new user, and run the program with that user | 04:26 |
| Guest40410 | but this ensure file system security | 04:27 |
| holstein | Guest40410: what would i do? | 04:27 |
| Guest40410 | how about other aspects of it ? | 04:27 |
| holstein | Guest40410: remove the hard driver if i was that concerned, and run it from a live CD | 04:27 |
| holstein | Guest40410: will a live CD not work? | 04:27 |
| holstein | Guest40410: virtualbox install with a snapshot? | 04:27 |
| holstein | Guest40410: a chroot? | 04:27 |
| Guest40410 | LiveCD works, I can even use virtual machines, but I want a way which is convenient, non resource intensive and quick. | 04:28 |
| holstein | Guest40410: do you want safe? of convenient? | 04:28 |
| holstein | or* | 04:28 |
| Guest40410 | both :-) | 04:28 |
| holstein | Guest40410: the ways above are isolated | 04:28 |
| Guest40410 | those are hardcore | 04:29 |
| holstein | might want to try http://www.docker.io/ | 04:29 |
| holstein | Guest40410: i dont think a live CD is hard core | 04:29 |
| holstein | http://www.jupiterbroadcasting.com/37396/docker-containers-made-easy-las-s27e01/ | 04:29 |
| Guest40410 | yeah that's cool. | 04:29 |
| Guest40410 | it a virtual environment management tool, isn't? | 04:30 |
| holstein | Guest40410: its a sandbox.. a jail.. | 04:31 |
| Guest40410 | I think chroot or running under another user works for me. | 04:31 |
| holstein | Guest40410: think? | 04:32 |
| holstein | the other user will only isolate certain things.. and might be exploitable | 04:32 |
| holstein | Guest40410: what would i do? live CD... what do i think would work? docker or chroot | 04:32 |
| Guest40410 | but there is a linux software 'arkose', which is exactly what I want. but it has bugs under ubuntu 13.04 | 04:32 |
| holstein | Guest40410: ? | 04:33 |
| holstein | Guest40410: so, install 12.04.. or deal with or fix the bugs.. or use one of the other options | 04:33 |
| holstein | wont hurt to try docker | 04:34 |
| Guest40410 | thanks for the tips :-) | 04:34 |
| Guest40410 | yeah I should try it | 04:34 |
| Guest40410 | If it use lxc underneath, it should be pretty fast | 04:34 |

| klemzy | I need help with network | 09:47 |
| Phryq | hey, I'm trying to fresh install ubuntu from a USB disk, but I get a bootloader error when I try to do so. I'm using Unetbootin and downloaded from the torrent. I tried deleting everything on the flash drive and re-installing twice. Same error each time | 13:26 |
