Now *this* seems like a compelling use for user-mode Linux. In this way
we could host "www.ydl-faq.org" and "clint.ydl-faq.org" on the same
machine, without the chance that "clint" could screw up the
underpinnings. Sweet. It sounds as if it would be heavily
resource-intensive, but there are probably ways to share virtual memory
spaces, and so on.
Thanks!
Best wishes,
Clint
