No the host is not running ftp or telnet.  I altered all mention of the
IP address of the VS in the files in /etc/* but there was nothing in
/etc/proftp.conf on the VS (I assume because /usr/sbin/virtuald on the
host uses the info in /etc/vsd/vsd.conf on the host to determine which
VS gets which FTP connection)

They are not running as inetd.

Last time it just seemed to hang and max out the CPU.  I just tried
again and got...

Read timeout
error: -ERR expected result but got nothing

It seems to have changed /etc/FQDN on the VS but nothing else (it hasn�t
changed the IP in /etc/vsd/vsd.conf on the host or anything in
/etc/hosts on the VS).   Doing "hostname" on the VS now reports the
changed FQDN, doing "hostname -i" hangs. 

Until this bug is fixed, please could someone tell me what files I need
to change in order to change the IP and hostname of a VS?   Is it
just...

ON HOST...
/etc/vsd/vsd.conf
ON VS...
/etc/hosts
/etc/FQDN
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
/etc/ssh/sshd_config
  (and other config files for various daemons)

Unforuntately, apart from my FAQ, Fubra have not had time to work on any
formalised documentation yet.
