[ale] chrooting a ssh login...

I'm trying to chroot a few ssh users on a RH 7.3 box to a directory called
/home/chroot.

I've copied various files over (/bin/bash and the libs needed, etc.). 
I've edited /etc/security/chroot.conf and added a line for each user like:

testuser /home/chroot

I've edited /etc/pam.d/sshd and added:

session    required     /lib/security/pam_chroot.so

I even added it to /etc/pam.d/login, so I could test it with su.

However, it's not working (even through login).  It simply acts as if
chroot is never called, dumping the users to their default home
directories.  I'm assuming I've missed something along the way.

Could anyone point it out?

Thanks!
John
