No problem. I now have a running RH73 vserver on my Gentoo server ;-) I'm not going to duplicate you and Cedric's work on how to create a Gentoo vserver. In this regard, I would be really happy if you would share your experiences with this on the list. And I can understand Cedric changed/updated the vserver utilities - how is that coming? ready to inclusion into the vserver rpm/src ?

I'm just going to duplicate the install I have now.
