hmm, yes probably you get it, because you should
a) check _all_ the pages and b) differenciate
between stable and development ...
(for example)
http://www.13thfloor.at/vserver/d_rel26/v1.9.1/
and second, I am not updating 'suggested' tools
without good reason, and the good reason for _not_
updating them everytime a new util-vserver version
is released, is just that the announced version
was tested with the according release ...
best,
Herbert
