Oh heck... so how did you get vserver to work with debian?  I messed 
with it for a week, and never could get it working.  Did you compile 
from the source?  Did you install xinetd, and did you have to change all 
the v_ stuff in /etc/init.d?  I finally seem to have it working on 
redhat 7.3, but I am getting pretty irritated with redhat already.  I 
guess I will have to install debian again and start over, but I wish I 
knew what I screwed up.  If you could briefly describe the install 
process I would appreciate it.
