    SAMBA issue

    For the people also searching for a solution, this worked for me, two options: 1) Manually: bind a directory on the host (a local dir or SAMBA share defined on host) to OpenVZ container: i.e. mount --bind /media/data3 /var/lib/vz/root/151/media/data3 (step to be executed on the host) 2)...
