  Mmm.. I have only two (big) servers using vserver for massively
hosting heavy RoR things, it's rock solid. But I use plain NAT on a
single public IP and thus a very simple network setup, maybe it helps
(since the network part seems to be so painful on Petzi).

  OK. Yes, pleease sync for a major upgrade, when Squeeze is out we'll
have a lot of work across all servers and we don't necessarily rush at
Debian release day :).

  BTW Petzi has an IPMI module but its SoL part does not work reliably
(broken Tyan things), so it's still using a plain old console server
(octopus.bearstech.com). But at least we can properly reset the machine
without power cycling it.
