That's it. The other side is the 'old' vserver utils and therefore
newvserver used a much simpler configuration method -- in a single file.

This , as anything that makes vservers easier to admin , would be nice.
I made several attempts to migrate to the new utils ; and have used
portions of them but did not have the time to figure out how cfengine
_really_ worked as I needed to get some vservers online quickly that
require *non-standard* settings. FWIW , cfengine seems to be complicated
for complication's sake not to provide an real features or functionality.
It is probably just me.
