Linux-VServer Or OpenVZ?

I spent most of today reading about Linux-VServer and OpenVZ. Both provide nearly identical functionality and neither is clearly better than the other. In the end I decided to try OpenVZ first based on instinct and a coin toss. ;-)

The plan is to build a DNS server inside an OpenVZ container. The host system is 450MHz PIII which is destined to become my new firewall. Since it is not a production system yet, it makes a good candidate for some experimenting. I wouldn't normally run a DNS server on a firewall, but the virtual containers provides an opportunity to get more out of an under utilized system while still isolating the DNS server from the host.
