Ok found the problem. To operate the vserver-admin package, you need
linuxconf-util and linuxconf-lib. Those package are independant from linuxconf
itself. Unfortunatly, there is a packaging problem and one file is missing
in linuxconf-util. I am fixing that. It can be extracted from the linuxconf
rpm like was suggested on another post.

I will release new linuxconf packages today to make linuxconf-util truely
indepedant from linuxconf. Sorry!

This also means the newvserver command won't work for you. But the
rest of the vserver functionality is not affected.

Yes they are packaged independantly. A kernel is always a sensitive issue...
