Re: [vserver] reboot -f in guest not working with recent Vserver versions

I had the same problem a while ago upgrading to something above 2.6.32 I
think. The solution was to put restart script in a vshelper directory.

For each guest on the host, put the following:

cat /etc/vservers/<guestname>/apps/vshelper/restart
#!/bin/bash

echo "vserver <guestname> restart" | at now

Once you do that, 'reboot -f' should work again.
