Hi!
Had the same or similar problem some days ago: some vservers lost their names,
doing "vserver xxx stop" didn't seem to work, it claimed to shut down all the
vserver processes but then it stopped with a message like "init: timeout
opening/writing control channel /dev/initctl".
Solution was to do a "vserver xxx stop", change to the directory
/var/run/vservers and delete (or rename) the file "xxx.ctx". After that I
could restart the vserver with "vserver xxx start". The vserver started
normally, new who he was and all the neccessary services worked on startup.
On startup the vserver created a new file "xxx.xtx"
Everything was all right again. I don't know what caused the problem (only 3
of 14 vservers had it) and I don't know why the solution worked. Perhaps
vservers can get hikkups..???
Greetings
Alexander
