        well, assuming that LWM is LVM :)

        if the NAS dont have iscsi support, the only way  is to create
BIG files, setup then as raw devices with losetup and create the LVM
on top of that... you get a little less performance, as you have to use
yet another layer of software/filesystem and possible a not optimal 
network transport protocol for reaching the real HDs... but should work

Good luck

Naturally the common people don't want war... but after all it is the
leaders of a country who determine the policy, and it is always a 
simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or
a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship.
Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of
the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are 
being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and
exposing the country to danger.  It works the same in every country.

Virtualization is moving to the mainstream and overtaking non-virtualized
environment for deploying applications. Does it make network security 
easier or more difficult to achieve? Read this whitepaper to separate the
