Yup, and the crowd of slashdotters have already shot down this idea, a'la the following comment: <http://linux.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=174265&cid=14496194> <quote> I'd like to post my agreement; VZ is generally a massive pile, is a resource hog extrodinare, and sucks royally compared to both Linux VServers and FreeBSD jails. HSPComplete is even uglier. I mean, the vzbackup scripts require SSH, even if you're using them to backup the local machine, and they have this nasty habit of locking on a random VPS and then dying silently. </quote> Best regards, Grzegorz Nosek _______________________________________________ Vserver mailing list [email protected] http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
