These errors are not fatal; they are coming from the 'initpost' script which tries to disable some services. The services will be still on (and cause lot of (non-fatal) error messages at vserver startup), but the vserver was built You can fix the vserver by disabling all unneeded services manually; by default (= when 'vserver ... build' succeeds), only 'syslog' is enabled. > I started investigating what was going on....

Then, the generated syslog will probably give an indication why minilogd was started. I suspect some initscript which was executed by an rpm %scriptlet (when syslogd is not running, minilogd will be invoked by the initscripts). You could try to enter the context also shortly after the ./vserver-build and watch the processlist to see when and by what minilogd was started. > Installed: MAKEDEV.i386 0:3.15-2 NetworkManager.i386 0:0.3.1-3.WB1 > SysVinit.i386 0:2.85-34 acl.i386 0:2.2.23-5 acpid.i386 0:1.0.3-2 mmh... there seems to be lot of unneeded stuff in this list. E.g. NetworkManager, apmd or acipd are useless in vservers and not required by core packages. Enrico
