Hmm, Part of me wants to say the safest thing for now would be to refuse mounts propagation from non-user mounts to user mounts. I assume you're thinking about a fully user-mounted chroot, where the user woudl still want to be able to stick in a cdrom and have it automounted under /mnt/cdrom, propagated from the root mounts ns? But then are there no devices which the user could create on a floppy while inserted into his own laptop, owned by his own uid, then insert into this machine, and use the device under the auto-mounted /dev/floppy to gain inappropriate access? -serge - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe util-linux-ng" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
