It would be fine for me as well if the original (host) path would be hidden from mtab on mount as well ... Okay, will fiddle the scripts now.

I think you can not do that with fstab (because there is no option mount would understand), but as I said, you can either do the mount with the -n command or 'just' modify the mtab file ... latter can be done with sed, awk, echo, vi ... by hand, on startup, in the init scripts ... > HP> if you want to hide that fact from /proc/mounts then it's getting > HP> trickier ... > > That's not necessary for me as /proc/mounts hide original path's from > the host server ;-) yes, that's the default (hide_mount) but it will show mounts inside the guest server ... best, Herbert > -- > regards, > > Guenther Fuchs > > ___ > Vserver mailing list > Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org > http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver

That's not necessary for me as /proc/mounts hide original path's from the host server ;-) -- regards, Guenther Fuchs ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver

Any ideas? 'define' hide ... if you want to have mount not show it, just remove the entry from the mtab (or mount it with -n) if you want to hide that fact from /proc/mounts then it's getting trickier ...

[Vserver] Hidden mount - how?
Hi there, as recommended in amavis configuration I have used an tmpfs mount to mount memory as tmp for amavisd-new by adding following line to fstab: | none/var/amavis/tmp tmpfs size=250m,mode=1777 0 0 For various reasons (and also for other mounts) I'd like to "hide" this (and other) mount(s) visibility inside the guest - how can this done? Any ideas? -- regards, Guenther Fuchs ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
