Hello,

If you can execute a:

 > vsdadm vs_details toaster

then toaster is being resolved propperly, and the loopback entry for the host is 
also know as toaster (check /home/vsd/vs).

There used to be problems with vs_create, caused by the variable skel argument 
on the end, but these have since been resolved. To obtain further debugging 
information append the following to the end of the [s]vsd 'server_args' entry in 
/etc/xientd.conf:

-p local6 -l 4

This will print all of VSD's output to syslog, which will hopefully point you in 
the right direction.

Whilst I'm here, I just though it best to say that you're probably going to run 
into some problems associated with quotas (and probably a couple of other 
things) using the 6.2 skel on a 7.2 box. The best way to get round this would be 
to obtain the latest source, build it, and copy the 
/usr[/local]/share/provsd/skel-repo directory into the skel, updating all of the 
VSD specific binaries to 7.2 (and I cant recomment strongly enough doing this 
for the entire installation).

HTH,
Damion.
