[ ]  I'm already using BME (or similar) patches 
[ ]  I will start using BME patches now

Re: [Vserver] future 2.6 development ...

2004-01-29 Thread Floris 'Tamama' van Gog
Answers interleaved.

  1) should the 2.4 branch be frozen, and if when?
I think you can freeze this as soon as 2.6 becomes stable enough to rely 
on. Big security holes/crashes could be patched, but not new features.


  2) is it bad if 2.4 and 2.6 branches diverge?
I do not think so, see above

  3) is multitude (2.4/2.6/2.6SE) preferred over 
 development speed?
I prefer secure over speed ;-), but I do not see any use in supporting 2 
branches for new developments, as the reason why I would stay with an 
older 'trusted' version is that 'it works and don't want to touch it'

  4) is a 2.4/2.6 migration path important to you?
Yes. I would prefer to not have to change anything if I want to change 
to a newer version (assuming the 'new' features are by default off if 
they could be potentially dangerous or different from the 2.4 branch)

  5) what branch 2.4, 2.6 or 2.6SE would you prefer?
At this point, 2.4 since I run it, in the future, possibly 2.6

  6) what branch/version do you currently use/test?
2.4.24-vs1.22

Re: [Vserver] fedora vserver on a rh9 host not starting

2004-01-07 Thread Floris 'Tamama' van Gog
I had the same 'problem' with slackware.

Apperantly when no daemons are started in a vserver, it is marked as
'not running'. Just start syslogd or something in the vserver and it
should catch on. I did not get it to properly use the startup scripts in
the vserver yet. Hm i wonder what vserver-stat would say of the context
when it is started without daemons..

Subject: [Vserver] fedora vserver on a rh9 host not starting


 Hello,

 We've been successfully running rh9 vservers on our rh9 host. We tried
 to build a fedora core vserver on this host, and surprisingly, we can
 enter the fc1 vserver, but can't start it:

 # on the host server (rh9):
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] vserver]# uname -a
 Linux vserver.sciences.univ-nantes.fr 2.4.22-ctx17a-smp #2 SMP Wed Aug
 27 10:42:10 CEST 2003 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

 [EMAIL PROTECTED] vserver]# vserver fc1-test enter
 ipv4root is now 1.2.3.4
 Host name is now somename.somedomain.com
 New security context is 29

 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# ps ax
PID TTY  STAT   TIME COMMAND
  1 ?S  0:13 init [3]   --init
 14894 pts/0S  0:00 /bin/bash -login
 14951 pts/0R  0:00 ps ax

 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# exit

 [EMAIL PROTECTED] vserver]# vserver fc1-test start
 Starting the virtual server fc1-test
 Server fc1-test is not running
 ipv4root is now 1.2.3.4
 Host name is now somename.somedomain.com
 New security context is 30

 [EMAIL PROTECTED] vserver]# vserver fc1-test status
 Server fc1-test is not running

 we are running vservers 0.29, we used both the default fed1.0-minimum
 and our own minimum install.

 Any idea?


 Thanks,
