comment Ubuntu - can non-root user run process in chroot jail?
With the new possibilities of namespaces in linux, perhaps it's possible to create (unshare) a new "user" namespace, where there would be an "embedded" root user, and perform chroot then.

revised Possible to supply two different configurations on the same physical network, so that they are selectable as 2 alternatives in NetworkManager?
Clarification: the SAME physical network.

I do not want to enter the configuration on the client side. The wish is analoguous to what we can have with WiFI: there are several selectable wireless networks with their own configurations. Can we similarly supply two alternative configurations in the wired network? They would be two different routing possibilities (chosen by the owner of the connecting device): TOR and non-TOR (normal).

Written the more general and correct question.

comment Turn on multicast packets in the wired LAN and keep them off the WiFi on ASUS WL-520gc router
Re DD-WRT: so, we should use the "micro" or "micro plus" variant (< 2Mb) of the distro fo the ASUS WL-520gc. Which of the available flavors of "micro plus" then (NEWD-2, NEWD, VINT, etc.)? dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/… says NEWD is for "all newer routers using Broadcom ..5354,... chipsets"; VINTage is for older ones. dd-wrt.com/site/support/router-database says it has 5354.

comment Turn on multicast packets in the wired LAN and keep them off the WiFi on ASUS WL-520gc router
This seems to be impossible with the native ASUS firmware. I could try DD-WRT for this configuration (blocking multicast on WIFI), which seems to be more flexible because it has configurable ebtables etc. Perhaps Micro-plus DD-WRT, which runs on this ASUS WL-520gc router, will alow such a configuration...

comment Something eats all memory (I suspect memory leak on some app). How to detect what?
I have been in doubt whether the "pmem" (%MEM) field in ps or top output is the right thing to look at if trying to detect a memory leak: Isn't this only the percentage of the physical memory the process currently is using? But other parts of the process's used (incl. leaked) memory may be swapped out. Perhaps "size" or "vsize" would be more appropriate for measuring the size of a process? E.g., ps -A --sort -size -o comm,size | head -n 11 or ps -A --sort -vsize -o comm,vsize | head -n 11

revised Should we disable the root user?
This seems to be a question also about security (because that's one of the main arguments for (non)-using sudo).
