Hi all,
* I would like to login as a normal user 'vps101' on the HN
and would like to get in a situation like you get after typing "vzctl enter 101". Syncing the password would be nice but is not needed.
* Putting "/usr/sbin/vzctl enter 101" as the shell in /etc/passwd did not did the trick for me.
* I have this trick in a hosted vz environment, so I know it's possible, but I'm unable to replicate it...

any suggestions?
thanks,
Oneg

Hi,

1. Put /bin/bash for user vps101 in /etc/passwd file.
2. You can add appropriate record to vps101's .bashrc file. Something like that "/usr/sbin/vzctl enter 102" but keep in mind that you need permission to open /dev/vzctl so you need something like that "sudo /usr/sbin/vzctl enter 102"

Perfect! That did the trick!

in /home/vps101/.basrc I've added:

sudo /usr/sbin/vzctl enter 101
exit

exit was added to get logged-out after logging out of the VE...

via visudo I've added:

vps101     ALL=/usr/sbin/vzctl enter 101

Thank you for the advice!
