well, a few would be: - they provide outdated tools - they modify the tools until they stop working - tools are added which do not work as expected - default settings for kernel and vservers are insecure - they do not care about their linux-vserver users - it causes a lot of unneccessary work for the linux-vserver development folks best, Herbert > Jesper > > -- > ./Jesper Krogh, [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Jabber ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > _______________________________________________ > Vserver mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver _______________________________________________ Vserver mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
