**On by default, no vhost config needed.** In-tree symlinks still work.
**Where the config lives (nothing to add on a fresh install)**
- `tenant_isolation` is compiled **default-on**, so it applies to every site with no directive.
- The `disable_symlinks if_not_owner from=$document_root;` backstop ships in the `http { }`
block of `/nginx/nginx.conf`, so **every** vhost inherits it. Do not add it per-site.
- Your site configs live in `/nginx/live/*` and inherit both layers automatically.
- Upgrading an old install that kept its own `/nginx/nginx.conf`? Add that one
`disable_symlinks` line to its `http { }` block once (or re-run `postfix` to refresh the config).
