No, with the 'skeleton' method:

  | vserver <vserver-id> build -m skeleton

see http://www.linux-vserver.org/index.php?page=alpha+util-vserver also

I hope, you are doing this mounting very carefully... Ever thought about
a hacked vserver where an attacker executes

  | ln -s /etc /mnt/foo

before you do

  | smbmount //... /vservers/.../mnt/foo

util-vserver protects against this.
