no it isn't because vserver-0.2x isn't maintained but the replacement util-vserver is (get util-vserver 0.29.3 and everything will work as expected) http://www.13thfloor.at/vserver/s_release/v1.27/util-vserver-0.29.3.tar.bz2 > Please fix this, as this directly affects my vserver installation. http://packages.debian.org/unstable/net/util-vserver (only 3 versions behind the current tools) http://www.13thfloor.at/vserver/s_release/v1.22/patch-vserver-0.29-fix01.diff (a very old, partial fix for the broken vserver-0.29 tools) HTH, Herbert > -- > Luke Computer Science System Administrator > Security Administrator,College of Engineering > Montana State University-Bozeman,Montana > > _______________________________________________ > Vserver mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver _______________________________________________ Vserver mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
