Hello

I've got few questions about the tcp/ip stack ...
Few days ago I've tested  freevps o a debian with 2.6 kernel ...

in each vserver appear a "lo" loopback interface and a "ethX" virtual interface. so it's possible to install quasi all packages ... except DHCPD for example

FreeVPS can't handle dhcpd VSERVER but seems to isolate more each server ?

This the answer from FreeVPS team to my question "Does it possible to run ISC DHCPD server under Freevps"

"original vserver don`t use virtualization for tcp stack.

all vps`s and host use same stack, but freevps virtualize tcp stack for
decrease load.
I`m sorry, but it`s only second requests for this feature after 3 years
FreeVPS project..."


"I don`t try this but it`s can be don`t work with FreeVPS.
dhcpd use bpf for get requests, but bpf level very poor virtualizated at
FreeVPS.
I have plan to rewrite vnetdev module for use L2 address for separate
packets between contexts and ability use any vps as default gateway for
all other, but it`s not for 1.5 branch.
At current time separate packets between contexts work with L3 addresses
(IPv4/v6)."


What are the exact difference between FreeVPS and Vserver ?
