Well, if you want them on separate servers more because of a resource issue than any other issue (like security) then why don't you set it up similar to what you did with mail and use links? That way you don't need to mess with a large number of mount points mount wwwserver:/home/www /home/www (akin to mount mailserver:/var/mail /var/mail) ln -s /home/username/www /home/www/username something like that? And make sure your permissions on /home/www/username are similar to permissions with /var/mail (probably user owned, group owned by UID that runs your webserver, and probably use the SGID bit on all directories in /home/www as well ) -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
