That is an odd mix of versions. 2.6.26 is the kernel in the upcoming Debian release but it is NOT based on a stable OpenVZ branch so your mileage may vary. The current stable branches are RHEL-4 2.6.9, RHEL-5 2.6.18, and vanilla 2.6.18. Rumor has it that the Parallels folks are working on 2.6.27 as the next target stable branch but we'll see how that goes. The current version of vzctl is 3.0.23. Historically the packages provided by Debian have not been very good... mainly because they don't update them. As a result the OpenVZ project has a repo of Debian packages. If you want to use Debian on your host node I'd recommend using the packages provided by the OpenVZ project. You can find info here: http://wiki.openvz.org/Installation_on_Debian Other Debian related wiki pages: http://wiki.openvz.org/Category:Debian I myself prefer RHEL or CentOS which are good matches given the OpenVZ stable branches but there are a lot of folks using OpenVZ on Debian, Ubuntu, Gentoo, Arch, and ALTLinux just to name a few.
