--I got around it. Installed a template manually into /vz/template/cache and went from there.
+ Added " echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward " to boot.local
+ /vz/template/cache is where downloaded stuff goes...
+ Copied downloaded templates so they can be insalled: /vz/template/cache # cp /mnt/cdtemp/openvz/* .
