I was unclear. I attempted a reboot of the host server. The vserver shutdown failed and hung the shutdown process so the host server never rebooted 1114823200 M * hillct does that make more sense? 1114823210 M * Bertl okay, I understand now ... yup already reported that as a bug 1114823231 M * hillct If I try a service vserver-default stop 1114823238 M * hillct I can ctrl-C out 1114823251 M * hillct but this leaves the vserver in an unknown state 1114823262 M * hillct where it can't be restarted or stopped completely 1114823335 Q * prae Quit: Pwet 1114823493 M * hillct I guess I don't want the kernel logger or network shutdown scripts executed either 1114823600 M * hillct is the network shutdown hancled cleanly by the vserver management code? 1114823629 M * hillct ie, is it reasonable/safe to remove the network shutdown script entirely, or should I modify it in some way? 1114823647 M * daniel_hozac remove it. 1114823653 M * daniel_hozac it does nothing useful. 1114823680 M * daniel_hozac (unless you have ngnet) 1114823724 M * hillct I'm running 1.95 kernel patches with 206 utils.
