HI all,

I have created vserver container(SELINUX=NO) and assigned private IP to 
each container and also updated the NAt rules for ssh.
Changed the listen address on the host machine in the sshd_config (ssh on 
host is an port 22)
Changed the listen address and also port number on the vserver container 
in the sshd_config (ssh on container is at port 6900)

I installed openssh-5.2p1 on the vserver without selinux.

But when i try to do ssh as root user  from another PC, i get the 
following error:

Aug 31 15:41:56 vps1 sshd[28075]: Accepted password for root from 
172.28.9.149 port 38009 ssh2
Aug 31 15:41:56 vps1 sshd[28075]: fatal: ssh_selinux_getctxbyname: 
ssh_selinux_getctxbyname: security_getenforce() failed

I am not able to create users on the vserver container. i get the 
following error:
#adduser newuser
 Adding user newuser...
 Adding new group newuser (1000).
 groupadd: PAM authentication failed
 adduser: `/usr/sbin/groupadd -g 1000 newuser' returned error code 1. 
Aborting.
 Cleaning up.
 Removing group `newuser'.
 groupdel: PAM authentication failed

Please suggest.
