Hi Herbert, hi everyone,
now I'm testing a 2.6.32.1 kernel patched with vs2.3.0.36.27 and the
last  utils-vserver. Both host and guests are Slackware (I followed
Laurens Vets how-to here
http://www.cilinder.be/2009/03/19/building-slackware-vservers-on-slackware.html).

I can create, start, enter but not stop any guest by typing
"vserver stop guest". Sometimes the guest stops only a few minutes later.
And when I reboot the host, enabling "vservers-default start" at
startup, my prompt is like this: root@firstguestname:#

Everything is going well in another box which runs the stable patch.

Thanks in advance for any help

Best regards
R
