Linux-VServer allows you to create virtual private servers and security contexts which operate like a normal Linux server, but allow many independent servers to be run simultaneously in one box at full speed.

All services, such as ssh, mail, Web, and databases, can be started on such a VPS, without modification, just like on any real server. Each virtual server created by Linux-VServer has its own user account database and root password and doesn't interfere with other virtual servers.

What's New in This Release:
Many new features like idle time scheduling (aka Advanced Fair Scheduling), per-context system time, context privacy, capability masking, and full CoW link breaking.
Several feature enhancements like accounting and limits (Dentry, Lock, Slab, and Socket) as well as extended filesystem support (JFS and ocfs2) and improved architecture support.
