{{{
deb http://ubuntu.uni-klu.ac.at/ubuntu.uniklu/ breezy uniklu-vserver
#deb-src http://ubuntu.uni-klu.ac.at/ubuntu.uniklu/ breezy uniklu-vserver
}}}

The uniklu archives are signed - if you want get rid of apt-get warnings:
{{{$ wget http://ubuntu.uni-klu.ac.at/uniklu-debuild.pub
$ sudo apt-key add uniklu-debuild.pub }}}

To install the VServer Kernel and utils enter:
{{{
# apt-get install linux-image-2.6.12-11-686
# apt-get install util-vserver vserver-debiantools}}}

You should get the following revisions
|| kernel || -11-2.6.12-11.24vs (one api number higher than the standard kernel) ||
|| util-vserver || >= 0.30.208-4ubuntu1 ||
|| vserver-debiantools || >= 0.2.5 ||

## At the moment the kernel is one revision behind the offical Ubuntu Kernel - will be fixed soon !
## || breezy-security || -10-686-2.6.12-10.24 ||

What are VServers

The [http://linux-vserver.org Linux VServer Project] provides Linux kernel-based virtual servers running on a single piece of hardware.

VServers are very useful for quickly setting up a set of restricted services for testing or production use.

VServers are not as popular as the similar [http://www.xen-source.com XEN] Hypervisor, but help you a lot, if you have to administrate a large number of servers and services.

While it will take some time until XEN is integrated into Ubuntu, VServers are available now.

Installation

Installation is quite simple - you need:

  • Kernel 2.6.12 with VServer 2.0 patch
  • util-vserver
  • vserver-debiantools

You can install these packages if you add the following lines to your sources.list:

deb      http://ubuntu.uni-klu.ac.at/ubuntu.uniklu/  breezy  uniklu-vserver
#deb-src http://ubuntu.uni-klu.ac.at/ubuntu.uniklu/  breezy  uniklu-vserver

The uniklu archives are signed - if you want get rid of apt-get warnings: {{{$ wget http://ubuntu.uni-klu.ac.at/uniklu-debuild.pub $ sudo apt-key add uniklu-debuild.pub }}}

To install the VServer Kernel and utils enter:

# apt-get install linux-image-2.6.12-11-686
