I've not been wathing the whole conversation, but that error I've left
above (and consequently the other errors too) look to me like you've
chrooted the sshd, rather than letting it chroot a certain group of users.
sshd must run as root, in order to switch to the required users, and
therefore has the permissions to chroot when required, so if you just leae
it with its default setup, and add those 2 lines to the config file that
were specified above, then everything ought to be fine.

Good luck
