The d7sandbox account would share an IP, a hard drive, and the same server configuration with my client accounts, but nothing else. Is there a danger with this?
It depends on how you have PHP set up. If it's php-cgi with suphp, you don't have too much to worry about. mod_php or similar, and everything is running under the same user account opening up greater possibilities of exploiting your customer's sites. It sounds like you have a dedicated server. If it's got the resources, why not install VirtualBox or set up KVM? Then, you could not only snapshot the Drupal install, but the whole server setup. You could even go the extra step of making the appliance available for anyone to download :) --Andrew
