  Description     : Enforce system call policies for applications

Systrace enforces system call policies for applications by
constraining the application's access to the system. The
policy is generated interactively. Operations not covered
by the policy raise an alarm and allow an user to refine the
currently configured policy.

This requires a special kernel patch, provided by kernels
compiled
with the kernel-patch-systrace patch.

Testing packages can be found here (ready for upload):
http://www.sauter-online.de/debian/

Systrace is currently include in the main source tree of NetBSD and
OpenBSD and is now ported to Linux.

I have splitted it into tree packages:
systrace, xsystrace, kernel-patch-systrace
