tried installl ebox from iso into kvm VE but failed
P.S. Had no problem with an installation in VirtualBox....
Why you use kvm? just install openvz ubuntu 8.04 and then use the repos to install ebox. The only problem is that openvz ubuntu 8.04.1 is the desktop edition and not the server, thats why i vote to have and server 8.04.3 appliance.
bye
Because of like it say standart, i think thats the desktop edition, and also because is a early version 8.04.1 when the current is 8.04.3, so is the server edition? can i update to 8.04.3 from this or not?
thanks
bye
It is neither the server nor the desktop edition - its the openvz template ;-)
why not - just try.

Currently, using venet doesn't seem to work very well. eBox likes to control the interfaces. When overwriting the network interfaces from eBox, connection is lost. Seems that using bridged NICs might be better.

So if venet dont work ok with ebox, we need to use veth? or other thing? and how to use them? thks
just create a new container and select veth.
but as far as I know ebox is a bare metal installations, means it would be a non-standard install.
easier: run no KVM
eBox can be installed by first installing Ubuntu, then adding eBox's repos in the /etc/apt/sources.list file.
I used bridged networking (vmbr0) on my installation. That seems to work OK, but I did have issues with eBox not "liking" the file system. Also, somehow, venet showed up as an interface after installing eBox.
I think I'll give the "bare metal" install a try in a KVM instance.
Still, I think eBox on Proxmox as an appliance would be great. The combo of Proxmox and eBox would be an excellent fit for SMBs.

yes, could be interesting. but its up to ebox to adapt their system for openvz. I am not sure if these guys are interested in doing this, just ask them!
