lxc.mount.entry = /mnt/raid/course_data /mnt/course_data none bind 0 0

I have the following bind mount of the host's LVM partition for samba
server inside an LXC guest (using lxc-0.9.0 on linux 3.11.4):

$ grep "var/lib" /var/lib/lxc/appserver1/config 
lxc.rootfs=/var/lib/lxc/appserver1/rootfs
lxc.mount=/var/lib/lxc/appserver1/fstab
$ tail -n1 /var/lib/lxc/appserver1/fstab
/home/smb_nobody   /var/lib/lxc/fserv1/rootfs/srv/ftp   none   defaults,bind
0   0
