Is it good for you? well, I think it would be best to have both, as they are complementary to some degree, and IMHO both, the full virtualization _and_ the isolation will require a separate namespace to work, I also think that limiting the isolation to something very simple (like one IP + network or so) would be acceptable for a start, because especially multi IP or network range checks require a little more efford to get them right ... I do not think that folks would want to recompile their kernel just to get a light-weight guest or a fully virtualized one best, Herbert > -- > Thanks, > Dmitry. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
