Is the correct method to use when creating a new vserver using util-vserver on debian, (per mailing list.)
I am switching my debian servers from vserver to util-vserver as per debian maintainer's remarks. I worked with the following and had much success: vserver NAME build --help (you don't trust me and want to read the options) vserver NAME build -m debootstrap --interface eth0:IPADDRESS/NETMASK --hostname NAME -- -d sid >The netmask should be a simple number 8 = 255.0.0.0 16 = 255.255.0.0 >You will get a debian host with this example. Before starting it, I would do >the following: >chroot /vservers/NAME >update-rc.d -f klogd remove >update-rc.d -f klogd pcmcia >echo "deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian unstable main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list >apt-get update >apt-get install ssh >passwd #set rootpassword >exit >on your host server, you have to limit ssh to its actual ip >EDITOR /etc/ssh/sshd_config: >ListenAddress PublicIP >This option needs to be writen for every ip it should listen on. >0.0.0.0 = nono! vserver does not get a port to run properly >Important: /etc/init.d/ssh restart >Almost done? >Yes: no public IP -> you should run iptables with the following option: >iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING --src VSERVERIP -j SNAT --to PUBLICIP >You can start the vserver!!! >vserver NAME start >Need help to find a package within debian: >apt-cache search NAME >I hope it helps, it is the best I can come up with >Ciao, Matthias -- 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
