+Q: Can I run dnsmasq in a Linux vserver?
+
+A: Yes, as a DNS server, dnsmasq will just work in a vserver.
+   To use dnsmasq's DHCP function you need to give the vserver
+   extra system capabilities. Please note that doing so will lesser 
+   the overall security of your system. The capabilities 
+   required are NET_ADMIN and NET_RAW. NET_ADMIN is essential, NET_RAW
+   is required to do an ICMP "ping" check on newly allocated
+   addresses. If you don't need this check, you can disable it with
+   --no-ping and omit the NET_RAW capability. 
+   Adding the capabilities is done by adding them, one per line, to
+   either /etc/vservers/<vservername>/ccapabilities for a 2.4 kernel or
+   /etc/vservers/<vservername>/bcapabilities for a 2.6 kernel (please
+   refer to the vserver documentation for more information).
