What is "sk" ? Your "host template" or the first vserver based on the
template ?

Could you tell us more precisely how you created the vserver you call your
"host template" (I suppose it is a normal vserver that you won't run) ? I
think this one should be constructed as a normal vserver, for example with
standard methods (vserver my_template build -m <your_method> ....)

How do you create the actual vservers from the template : do you use
vserver-copy, something like http://www.micropp.se/vserver/vcopy ?
