smb mounted shares under chroot



Hi

 

I'm using openoffice under chroot. Two problems still remain - printing (I need to install printing under chroot also I think ???) and opening files mounted using samba.

 

The samba shares are mounted using a script on user login. These are visible under /home/username/smb-share

 

The home dirs are mounted under chroot via fstab as follows (from the superb debian-amd64 howto):

/home    /var/chroot/sarge-ia32/home    none    bind        0   0

 

problem is that I can't see the mounted share under the above. The directory the share is mounted on is empty when looking at it via chroot. So I can't open (or save) any files from the mounted samba share using any programs running under chroot (in this case, openoffice).

 

Do I need to install samba under chroot also and have a separate mount for chroot as well?? And would this even work since I would be mounting at the same point its already mounted on under normal 64 operation???

 

I'm a little stumped here.

 

Perhaps I'm missing an option somewhere???

 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

 

Takis
