Hello,

I'm testing vanilla 2.6.30.5 kernel with patch-2.6.30.5-vs2.3.0.36.14-pre7 
and pax-linux-2.6.30.5-test23 and found the following:

root@nssave:~# hostname
nssave
root@nssave:~# vserver template start
 * Starting system log daemon...
   ...done.
 * Starting OpenBSD Secure Shell server sshd
   ...done.
 * Starting Postfix Mail Transport Agent postfix
   ...done.
 * Starting periodic command scheduler crond
   ...done.
 * Starting web server lighttpd
   ...done.
 * Running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local)
   ...done.
root@nssave:~# hostname
template

The guest hostname somehow overwrites the hostname of the host...

Is there a fix available for this strange bug?

Best regards,
Jozsef
