Debian Etch (stable) has support for vserver with kernel 2.6.18 http://packages.debian.org/linux-image-vserver > That said, I'm really happy with CentOS 5 and Daniel's YUM repository. http://rpm.hozac.com/dhozac/centos/5/vserver/x86_64/ contains 2.6.22 (but maybe without recent security updates for vanilla kernel) > Of course you could always roll your own kernel. yes, but it's hard to backport all security updates into the last vserver supported kernel ... i don't have problem with recompiling kernel, but which supported source can i use for recent kernel? on many servers i'm still using supported debian vserver kernel 2.6.18 with backported recent vanilla kernel patches, for example: linux-2.6 (2.6.18.dfsg.1-18etch4) stable-security; urgency=high * bugfix/fcntl_setlk-close-race.patch [SECURITY] Fix an SMP race to prevent reordering of flock updates and accesses to the descriptor table on close(). See CVE-2008-1669 i'm asking because i don't know in detail other distributions and their kernel support - so if some distribution has e.g. supported 2.6.22, i can try patch it with vserver patch ... i read discussion about vserver patch for newer kernel, so we must use older kernel yet ... -- 5o Peter.Mann at tuke.sk
