Have you changed the context number in /etc/vservers/new/context ?
As I had lots of trouble changing config stuff when copying, I have a personal way for copy/duplicate:
-make a new vserver skeleton named "new" with right ip, context, etc that way:
vserver [name] build -m skeleton --hostname [hostname] --interface eth0:[ip] --context [context number]
-Copy old to new:
cp -a /vservers/old/* /vservers/new/
-make the dummy interface in /etc/vservers/new/interfaces to have 127.0.0.1
-change config files in /vservers/new/etc/ to fit new ip and hostname
These steps can be handled by scripts...
I am making a report about vserver (in french, with details about installation and management) and should be able to put it online soon, I'll let the list know.
