I just ran into a new strange one. I have some more research to do and
'obviously' an upgrade but I'll bring it up incase it is actually a PEBKAC
(Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair).

Vserver kernel 2.4.20ctx-17. This strange problem first came up while I
was trying to upgrade to a newer vserver kernel so a simple upgrade isn't
an option right now/simply.

Here is the problem. I can't get a ping, dig, ssh, or smbmount to work
when logged in via ssh as root.

  The first strangeness is I have a script that runs via cron and mounts
SMB/CIF shares on Win2K systems but I can't run the same command(s) from
the command line. I get a permission denied when I try the smbmount and a
socket error when I try to ping, dig, or wget.

  The second strangeness I can use the wget and dig (ssh also I think)
from inside a vserver. Go figure eh?

Well as time permits I'll try an upgrade to a newer kernel and see if this
fixes the problem. But if this rings a bell for anyone please take a
swing with a clue stick.

Rod
