Interesting, one of the last SL6 VMs we have doesn't do this. The "sandbox" init script (/etc/init.d/sandbox) has mount commands that setup bind mounts for /tmp etc. The comments in the script say: # description: sandbox, xguest and other apps that want to use pam_namespace \ # require this script be run at boot. This service script does \ # not actually run any service but sets up: \ # /var/tmp, /tmp and home directories to be used by these tools.\ # If you do not use sandbox, xguest or pam_namespace you can turn \ # this service off.\ # No idea if this is related.
