description: new to openvz so excuse my ignorance on this but when i do a "vzyum 101 update"....on this virtual server it goes great. but then i want to install firefox on the virtual server a then i do a "vzyum 101 install firefox" it seems to go well but when completed i can not ssh back into the virtual server. it says connection refused. i am not sure where to look to fix this. looked inside the .ssh directory but that did not help. have done this several times thinking maybe? but i get the same "connection refused" jc

description: it would be good to post output of your ssh attempt with -v key: #ssh -v your_server and # vzctl exec VPSID ps axf # vzctl exec VPSID ls /dev

description: The problem is caused by the fact udev is installed into your system, removing our dev package. What required udev and how it can be avoided -- this is the next question, I will look at it next week. For now, you can try to forcibly remove udev and install dev package (from /vz/template/OSNAME/OSVERSION/OSARCH/addons/) to fix the VPS.
