Re: sharing directories in virtual hosts

I still hope someone can give me a solution how to make the symlinks
that start with "../" work, that would be an ideal solution.

In the mean time I worked with the solution that Roy suggested (thanks
Roy!). It's easy to mount a subdirectory with

mount --bind olddir newdir

and you can even put it in /etc/fstab. In my case a line like this:

/www/html/a	/www/html/london/a	none	bind		0 0

So I think (have not tried yet) that these mounts will be done
automatically after a reboot.

But since I have to do this for hundreds of virtual hosts this solution
has its price. Commands like "df" will give a lot of output and I'll
have to keep /etc/fstab in sync with the document root of Tux. Besides I
don't know how efficient such a solution is, with hundreds of mounting
points....

Other ideas are much appreciated! ;-)
