okay, maybe you could a) strace the reboot -f with
strace -fF -o reboot.trace reboot -f
and upload that output somewhere (or attach it)
and b) check in the system/kernel log for messages

can not be executed (for whatever reason)

pingable? you mean you gave that so that vserver root
can use the 'ping' tool (and other tools, like network
sniffers)

that should be enabled by default ...

if all fails, could you upload the image of your
vserver somewhere? best way to capture it with
dump 0zf vserver.dump /vservers/<name>
