Running the stable series of vserver, I did run into a network configuration
problem.
I did use the hostnames for the vserver names:
- webserver10
- webserver11

webserver10 starts up and runs fine. After starting webserver11, webserver10
loses its network connection.
When you check with ifconfig or ip, you can see that the interface alias for
webserver10 is gone. I have one alias interface left: eth0:webserver1
It looks like the alias name for a interace is limited to 10 characters.
When I rename webserver11 to test11, everything works fine.
(with eth0:webserver1 and eth0:test11)

Does anyone know if this problem is related to debian, or Linux limit?
Can it be a configuration error of the host system?

I'm running the next configuration:
Debian sarge host, debian sarge vservers
Kernel 2.4.26-vs1.28
util-linux 0.30 (debian sarge package)

Thanks for your help,

Bert.
