Answering my own post... my shell seems to have helpfully cached the
path to the vserver program. Logging off then back in fixed that
problem.
So now I'm on my way to my next problem :)

[Vserver] building first guest vserver
Hello again.
I got a skeleton guest server built and am now trying to start it.
There were some files that could not be copied from the /proc directory
so I skipped them.
I had an error message that running vprocunhide seemed to take care of.
But now...

secure-mount: chdir("/tmp"): No such file or directory
/usr/local/etc/vservers/dns/fstab:2:1: failed to mount fstab-entry
find: var/run: No such file or directory

Failed to start vserver 'dns'
...although I've reompiled and reinstalled the util-vserver utilities
with a -prefix=/ they still seem to be running
on /usr/local/etc/vservers rather than /vservers.
How can I fix this?
Thanks again for your help and patience.

[Vserver] errors shutting down things not started
Hello, I have used vskel-2.0 to create a skeleton and my firs vserver. Having created vserver I realized that the sysv startup files need attention, and after figuring out that I needed to run vserver sis exec chkconfig --level 2345 off rather than chkconfig --level 2345 off to stop them running when I use vserver sis start I now get : [EMAIL PROTECTED] rc.d]# vserver sis status Server sis is not running [EMAIL PROTECTED] rc.d]# vserver sis start Starting the virtual server sis Server sis is not running ipv4root is now 10.0.0.16 Host name is now sis.kic.muangchiangrai.net Domain name is now New security context is 50 Starting system logger:[ OK ] Starting kernel logger:[ OK ] Starting sshd: [ OK ] Starting crond:[ OK ] Starting atd: I change the listening addresses for sshd in the host and vserver as mentioned in the docs.

[Vserver] chkconfig
Hello, I've run vskel and created a vserver and attempted to start it. It's clear I should eliminate a lot of the startup scripts in /etc/rc.d/init.d But chkconfig seems to work on THE /etc/rc.d/init.d Do I have to delete all the startup scripts by hand?

I don't have a dpkg command.

Hello, The server has a redhat 8.0 installation in the / partition and a separate partition mounted on /vservers to which I would like to add my vservers. Isn't apt-get a debian tool? Won't it confuse the rpm database? I have manually upgraded several packages from the fedora ftp site, notably openssl and openssh... but others as well. Will apt-get interfere with this?

Re: [Vserver] Newbie doc posted (beta)
Hello again James, I reinstalled the rpms as you suggested and things went much better after that. But the installation hangs after some small number of rpms is installed. I have to kill the rpm process and delete and rebuild the rpm database. Then the same thing happens again. I had this problem initially when I was running install-rh8.0 by hand. Have you seen it yourself? I've upgraded to rpm-4.2.1.

Hello James Noble, Thank you for your How-To. I'm following along, more or less, and am at service nscd start chkconfig nscd on 345 Why do I need the nameserver cache demon? pico /etc/vservers.conf (set BACKGROUND=yes) I don't have an /etc/vservers.conf I found a file named vserver-0.29/distrib/sample.conf but it looks as though it wants to source the same non-existent /etc/vservers.conf to which you refer. pico /etc/vservers/newvserver.defaults Neither do I have an /etc/vservers/ directory nor a /etc/vservers/newvserver.defaults file. Can you point me to copies of these somewhere that I might customize and make my own? Thanks very much for the How-To and for any further help you might give here.

Re: [Vserver] creating vservers (sans-linxconf installer)
Paul, Thank you. The script makes interesting reading. I'm on a modem though, and I don't really want to install over the wire. And I'd rather stick with the devil I know, rh, than go with the devil I don't know, deb. At least on a machine that already has a rh 'host' installed. I think I will investigate debian at the next iteration. Rh is becoming the MS of linux. I guess I'll take another look at the other newvserver again right now. Thanks again.

[Vserver] creating vservers
Hello, I am running a 2.4.23-owl-vs1.22 kernel and would now like to create some vservers. I tried the newvserver script but it complained about a missing interpreter, and I would rather avoid installing the linuxconf system and learning about yet another interpreter. I believe I was told that the util-vserver package can do everything I need to do, but I need a little more documentation on just how to proceed. Can anyone suggest such documentation? Thanks. -- John Francis Lee <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ___ Vserver mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver

Thanks! Why is it installing 541 packages when there are only 163 lines in rh8.0-minimum? The installation seems to be hanging. Anyone else had this difficulty?

Re: [Vserver] install-rh8.0 minimum
Yes, the /vservers directory is the mount point for a separate partition... but I still need the original, 'host' server in the root partition, right? So I will have two separate collections of rpm installations. One will be the 'host' server in the root partition and the other will be shared among as many virtual servers as I create in the vservers partition, right?

[Vserver] install-rh8.0 minimum
Hello again, I have looked at the script install-rh8.0 and decided I will try install-rh8.0 minimum I have just a vserver 'host' installed now. I have a separate filesystem mounted on /vservers. I guess that I will end up with two "linux systems" : one under / the one unshared, separate vserver 'host' one under /verservers the one shared, via hard links, among my vservers Is this correct? Can I then update/add/'unify' those rpms I want to share among my vservers to the second, shared, linux system? And update/add those rpms or tarballs I want not to share to the individual vservers? Do I understand what I'm doing :) ? Thanks for your help. -- John Francis Lee <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ___ Vserver mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
