Yes.

i.e. uid 1000 in ns1 may own ns2, but uid 1000 in ns3 does not?

I am not certain of your example.

The simple case is:

init_user_ns:
     child_user_ns1 (owned by uid == 0 [in all user namespaces])
           child_user_ns2 (owned by uid == 0 [ in all user namespaces])


root (uid == 0) in child_user_ns2 has all rights over anything in
child_user_ns1.


Thank you for looking.

Eric
