This page documents my attempt to install Seaside as loadbalanced configuration with multiple squeak images under OpenVZ

Create VE

# download template
root@tab:~# cd /var/lib/vz/template/cache
root@tab:~# wget http://download.openvz.org/template/precreated/contrib/debian-5.0-i386-minimal.tar.gz

root@tab:~# vzctl create 1001 --ostemplate debian-5.0-i386-minimal --ipadd 10.0.0.1 --hostname gw.rot13.org
root@tab:~# vzctl create 1011 --ostemplate debian-5.0-i386-minimal --ipadd 10.0.1.2 --hostname squeak1.rot13.org

# configure
root@tab:~# vzctl set 1011 --nameserver 192.168.1.2 --save

Use something like vz-nat.sh to configure NAT on your OpenVZ machine.
