Hi!

Had the same or similar problem some days ago: some vservers lost their names, 
doing "vserver xxx stop" didn't seem to work, it claimed to shut down all the 
vserver processes but then it stopped with a message like "init: timeout 
opening/writing control channel /dev/initctl".

Solution was to do a "vserver xxx stop", change to the directory 
/var/run/vservers and delete (or rename) the file "xxx.ctx". After that I 
could restart the vserver with "vserver xxx start". The vserver started 
normally, new who he was and all the neccessary services worked on startup. 
On startup the vserver created a new file "xxx.xtx"

Everything was all right again. I don't know what caused the problem (only 3 
of 14 vservers had it) and I don't know why the solution worked. Perhaps 
vservers can get hikkups..???

Greetings

Alexander
