Hi-

Sorry I haven't been around but my boss has caught the vserver fever and has
me converting literally *everything* to guests! :)

I have not had the time to keep up with this list or the website and to be
honest I don't yet, so I'm going to be lazy and ask.

I am currently using the following:

vanilla kernal and patch : 2.6.13.3-vs2.1.0-rc4

Gentoo packages for

util-vserver-0.30.210-r5

 baselayout-vserver 1.11.13-r1

I see that 2.1.0 was released in Dec. Is this the latest stable?
What newer kernel(s) will the patch work with?

I see that the latest kernel in portage is vanilla-sources-2.6.16_rc6

I may be biting my own tail, but I gave up on the gentoo sources kernels due
to the extremely heavy patching. I find the vanilla kernels perform noticably
faster and seem more stable.

Everything I am running is rock stable so I'm not positive upgrades are truly
needed but would like to incorporate any other features/fixes my above
versions may be missing.

Last question... has any progress been made on the proposed network code
changes to allow each guest to have a true localhost and more than 16 ip
addresses without falling apart?
