Hi, Running 4 sevres with most current cPanel installed. Jailed Shell has always been "OFF" Looking in the folder VirtFS on all servers there are between 1-4 users in each VirtFS folder. seeing that shell has always been turned off why are the accounts in the VirtFS folders? and it appears that each account holds the same structure: root [/home/virtfs/foreforu]# du --max-depth=1 | sort -n | awk 'BEGIN {OFMT = "%.0f"} {print $1/1024,"MB", $2}' du: cannot access `./usr/local/apache/domlogs/investorchitchat.com-bytes_log.bkup': No such file or directory 0 MB ./proc 0 MB ./dev 1 MB ./etc 6 MB ./bin 13 MB ./sbin 24 MB ./lib64 31 MB ./opt 42 MB ./tmp 227 MB ./lib 2499 MB ./home 8447 MB ./usr 22439 MB ./var 33730 MB .
Under the account folders they all hold folders such as /var /user... Thanks Frank

  The jailed environment is now used for running cron jobs I believe as well as some exim processes, the latter depending on the shell configured [url=http://docs.cpanel.net/twiki/bin/view/AllDocumentation/WHMDocs/VirtFS#cPanel%20%20WHM%20version%2011.38]VirtFS (Jailed Shell) Edit: [url=http://releases.cpanel.net/releases/11-38/jail-system-update/]Jail System Update | cPanel Releases so if you've got noshell for accounts you'll also get jailshell behaviours

  Hello :) Yes, this is the expected behavior. As mentioned in the previous post, this change was implemented in cPanel version 11.38. More information is available at: 11.38 - Jailed System Update Thank you.
