A polyinstantiated directory provides a different instance of itself based on user name, or when using SELinux, user name, security context or both\&. If an executable script -\FC/etc/security/namespace\&.init\F[] +/etc/security/namespace\&.init exists, it is used to initialize the instance directory after it is set up and mounted on the polyinstantiated directory\&. The script receives the polyinstantiated directory path, the instance directory path, flag whether the instance directory was newly created (0 for no, 1 for yes), and the user name as its arguments\&. .PP The pam_namespace module disassociates the session namespace from the parent namespace\&. Any mounts/unmounts performed in the parent namespace, such as mounting of devices, are not reflected in the session namespace\&. To propagate selected mount/unmount events from the parent namespace into the disassociated session namespace, an administrator may use the special shared\-subtree feature\&. For additional information on shared\-subtree feature, please refer to the mount(8) man page and the shared\-subtree description at http://lwn\&.net/Articles/159077 and http://lwn\&.net/Articles/159092\&. @@ -217,9 +76,9 @@ If a line in the configuration file corresponding to a polyinstantiated director Instance parent directories by default are expected to have the restrictive mode of 000\&.
