Not as such. It could be done with work, or you could do it by cheating 
badly as far as volume ids and "afs" kerberos keys. Otherwise, use a 
virtual machine, or, no.

yes, we should consider having the vldb return port information for 
fileservers, which would make this easier: you'd only need separate vldbs.
