so this means that there are no username -> userid "mappings" in /etc/passwd but
the userid's exist somewhere, but noone knows? ;)

no problem. I used your secure LVM how-to to setup everything.

(btw there's a missing "/" on line 7 of your LV01.sh)

ok. so for /dev/vg/LV01 and /dev/vg/LV02 I would use two vroot devices (that's
what I'm already doing), right?

does the vroot devices have to be used one after one (eg. 0, 1, 2, 3 instead of
0, 1, 4)? I tried to use /dev/vroot/4 (before using vroot devices 1, 2, 3) just
so that the vroot device number matches the context number 4 (for convenience).

so it's correct that there are no usernames in the repquota view, but only userid's?

thanks for your extensive help.
