SOLVED: Duplicated directory structure in /var/www

Had an HD run out of space today. My sites are all in /home under username directories. I found the exact same directory structure, including all files and permissions, duplicated in /var/www.

Is this normal? Why are these here? Are they necessary? If it can be prevented, how?

Thanks in advance.

Ah, I figured out it was because Virtualmin mounts /var/www on /home. Verified by mount -l. So the files aren't duplicated.

Howdy,

Just to clarify -- Virtualmin doesn't do that :-)

Virtualmin doesn't setup mount points.

While it's true that Virtualmin puts it's files in /home, if something is mounting /var/www on /home, that was setup by something or someone else :-)
