Package: util-vserver
Version: 0.30-14

Set up is a generic x86 running Debian testing, kernel 2.4.27 + ctx patch,
security contexts seem to be working fine but there appears to be a bug in
the support scripts.

Have created two vservers:

newveserver --hostname mjb-test-vserver1 --ip 172.16.104.4
newveserver --hostname mjb-test-vserver2 --ip 172.16.104.5

both installed via http fine but when I cam to use networking (to ssh
between them) it didn't seem to work.  So I stoped both with
/etc/init.d/vservers stop.  ifconfig reported eth0 and lo only.  Starting
the first one:
vserver mjb-test-vserver1 start
seemed to work fine and ifconfig had an additional entry for 'eth0:mjb-'
with the correct IP.  SSH from the computer to the virtual server works,
as does another machine on the network and from vserver to other machine. 
Starting the second vserver seems to change the ip address of 'eth0:mjb-'
to 172.16.104.5 and networking from it works fine. However attempting to
connect from the main install to the first vserver fails with 'No route to
host' (tcpdump shows a series of unanswer arp requests) and connecting
from the first vserver to the other machine on the network fails with
'Invalid argument'.

Exiting the second vserver (but not closing) and then entering the first
vserver mjb-test-vserver1 enter
seems to shift the ip of 'eth0:mjb-' back to 172.16.104.4 and networking
for that works again but now vserver2 is unreachable.  Exiting and
returning to 2 seems to switch it back again.

Shutting down mjb-test-versver1 removes the alias all together.

Alas my bash isn't up to submitting a patch but this looks like quite a
simple fix.

Apologise if I'm being incompetitant and this isn't a bug at all.

Cheers,
 - Martin
