In X01-localapps:
> # Mount the home directory
> sshfs -o allow_other,ControlPath=${LDM_SOCKET} ${LDM_SERVER}:${LDM_HOME} ${LDM_HOME}
would it be possible to add "-o follow_symlinks" to the sshfs params?
This would make the following scenarios possible:
* Letting the user transparently use his own symlinked dirs that
point outside of his home dir.
* Having (read only) shared directories with localapps - e.g. a
directory with some videos or exercises for the students etc.
* Using .wine/dosdevices/z: if wine is installed as a localapp
* Using some predefined symlinked dirs like ~/Examples
etc
Is there any (security? performance?) reason not to follow symlinks?
The user is logged on the server, so AFAIK he can already see the
symlinked files through apps running on the server...
Kind regards,
Alkis
