Do not hear me wrong though : OpenVZ, in Debian Lenny, aka next Stable (already frozen, so 99% stable, I'd say... and really very reliable yet), is very usable ; plus it is gonna be labeled as "Stable" and be supported for something like three years from now on (as I am under Sid, quite bleeding-edge, on the desktop, my servers always run a Debian Stable, or frozen Testing)...
Three things still bother me :
- not being able to set owners/permissions in the "devnodes" stanza from the HN (mainstream problem, I guess, and only annoying for hotplugable devices - worked around with udev script triggering on the HN and init scripts in the VN, though) ;
- no VZ quotas in bind-mounts (mainstream as well - worked around with good ol' partitions on the HN) ;
- udev anoyances (not that I am convinced udev should be in a VE, but "old" makedev and such is vowed to disappear in some more or less distant future... so - worked around convincing package maintainers to still support makedev for now) ;
There is still a 2.6.26 kernel which oopses on heavy network load, in Lenny, but the fix (backported from 2.6.27 - seems it was Linux Vanilla's fault) has been in Sid for a week, and should integrate Lenny in a few days.
... and, while I am at it, OpenVZ in itself is quite bleeding-edge technology... containers are bound to be integrated in mainstream Linux, without VServer or OpenVZ external patches, or with the least, one day or another... huge OpenVZ contributions to mainstream tend to show it.
As for things working out of the boxes, I tend to think about it as mirages
