History:
========
0.7:
----
Support for squeeze.
0.6:
----
Support for lenny and post install host script.
0.5:
----
Possible to do unattended installs.
0.4:
----
Make --hostname --ip and --domain options optional if a nameserver is
available so they can be determined. One of --hostname or --ip still have
to be used to query the database.
Allow to use configurable mirrors for non-US and security updates.
0.3:
----
In 2006 etch is the default distribution for installations.
0.2:
----
In 2005 it has been modified a lot to use vserver ... build infrastructure
available in latest version of util-vserver. This allow for the latest
configuration structure and less code in newvserver program.
0.1:
----
In 2004 it was split out as a separate piece of software so it
can evolve on its own.
0.0:
----
This software package was originally just a simple script to create virtual
servers (vserver project) on debian machines using debootstrap.
It was first written by Mark Lawrence <nomad@null.net> and then improved
by Paul Sladen <vserver@paul.sladen.org>. Ola Lundqvist <opal@debian.org>
modified it further and included it (in 2002) the vserver package in the
Debian GNU/Linux Distribution. Ola also added a couple of other scripts to
make other tasks like stripping virtual servers and such.
Package cache notice:
=====================
Previous versions of newvserver saved archives in $VROOT/ARCHIVES. Due to
problems with having the same dir for saved archives for multiple
distributions this directory has been changed to $VROOT/ARCHIVES/$DIST. You
can clean this directory.
If you are creating virtual servers from a distribution that change over time
(like testing and unstable) you may find similar errors. The solution is to
clean the $VROOT/ARCHIVES/$DIST directory if it complains on unpacking a
debfile that do not exist.
Package caching can be disabled with the option --nopkgcache.
