Interesting, that loopback mounting works, while nfs-mounting from localhost doesn't (see our discussion).
Does anybody know what the fundamental difference is? Maybe it could help to trace the nfs bug. I guess, "mount -o loop -o ro" works as well?

Thanks for this hint,

Hello,

Have anyone tried to mount vhost through loop image?

I have 18GB SCSI disk and made 6*2GB files (dd if=/dev/zero
of=/TEST.filesystem bs=1024k count=2048)
then made ext3 filesystem on them (mkfs.ext3 /TEST.filesystem), then mounted
via loop device (mount -o loop /TEST.filesystem /vservers/01) and then
installed debian scrap with little changed Mark Lawrence's script (sh
ch_newvserver 01 mydomain.pl 172.16.1.101).

Works very good. Performance is good. Flexibility is excellent.

What kind of "bad things" i can expect with this kind of filesystems and
vhosts?
