Is the syntax or variable named differently now?

There is only one big change.
The -23 release is based on new RH kernel 2.4.21-27.0.2.EL

Some fixes in this RH kernel version:
- fix nessus-induced kernel panic with auditing
- fix 32-bit-compat regression in CMSG validations
- eliminate potential VMA list races with do_brk()
- ignore ICMP Source Quench messages in tcp_v4_err()
- prevent VMA overlap crashes in insert_vm_struct()

You don't need to have H-Sphere for them, they are freely downloaded from psoft.net. They make VPS creation and management much easier. H-Sphere just provides a cosy Web interface to manage VPS by means of these scripts. Please refer to the following guide to install H-Sphere VPS on your server (skip the kernel installation if you've done with it): http://www.psoft.net/HSdocumentation...tallation.html Please also read the following guides: http://www.freevps.com/docs/vps_tools.html#hsphere http://www.psoft.net/HSdocumentation...s_scripts.html In particular, to create virtual servers: http://www.psoft.net/HSdocumentation....html#creation __________________ Vladislav Kisselev Parallels, Inc.

I can't investigate your problem without an extra info.
As minimum, give me full info about your system configuration:
uname -a
rpm -qa | grep vps

Then, send me the whole /var/log/hsphere/vps.log

After that we will be able to help you.

You could use 1.4-1 only for testing purposes.
Don't use this version for production servers.

Yes, and it will be another next few days if it's needed to make 1.4 release 100% stable and safe for production servers

For example: 19168 pts/0 D 0:00 \| \_ /usr/sbin/vserver_limit --ctx 3 --vroot /vservers/testserv (this one was on vps-start.pl) Anyone else seeing this?

1.4-1 is not a public release even not a public beta. Please, don't use it.

There is 1.4-3 public release coming soon.

If no, wouldn't the more people testing out FreeVPS before release mean a more stable product with fewer bugs, and FreeVPS being tested out on more hardware combinations?
