Hi!
I have successfully installed the latest release including its tools but
I'm having problem stopping a vserver.
Basically, I have created on vserver. Let's name it vhost1, creation was
successful but when I am trying stop it using the tool 
# vserver vhost1 stop
Stopping the virtual server vhost1
Server vhost1 is running
ipv4root is now 192.168.60.241
New security context is 3
Stopping sshd:                                             [  OK  ]
Shutting down sendmail:                                    [  OK  ]
Shutting down interface eth0:
It just stops at "Shutting down interface eth0:" for a long and nothing
happens.
Regards,
Joey Esquibal
