for those interested, to save some time:
---------
http://www.ensim.com/products/privateservers/index.html
http://www.ensim.com/products/privateservers/details.html
http://www.ensim.com/products/materials/datasheet_vps_051003.pdf
(seems RedHat based, does everything, but no pricing info)
---------
http://www.sphera.com/prod_hostingdirector.php#sd
what they call VDS(tm) (Virtual Dedicated Server), I would
call apache, postfix and proftp setup ...
any 'resource' management is done by software or quota.
(seems to work on any distro with a recent 2.4 kernel)
---------
http://www.sw-soft.com/products/virtuozzo/
http://www.sw.com.sg/en/products/virtuozzo/faq/
this seems somewhat more complete than the vserver project
(venet device, resource limits, ...) but I haven't seen
it actually work ...
(supports plesk and confixx ... whatever those are)
---------
YMMV,
Herbert
