It's not really vserver like, but definately an only execution environment: www.sandboxie.com -- Regards, Dennis Roos Network Engineer InTouch N.V.

It's basically a kernel patch to the Linux kernel that allows it to run as a windows process. It works really well if you don't need to be in a virtualized hardware environment. Like VMware it allocates disk space and RAM so it's not as lightweight as Linux Vserver but it's a lot more resource friendly (IMHO) than VMWare. -- Matthew Nuzum <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> www.followers.net - Makers of "Elite Content Management System" View samples of Elite CMS in action by visiting http://www.followers.net/portfolio/ ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver

VMware or MS Virtual Server are not identical to Linux VServer, as they virtualize a full machine and not only an execution environment for the applications. But perhaps it is a solution for Gerhard ? Something similar to VMware and Virtual Server : soon Xen 3 with Intel VT or AMD Pacifica processors ?
