OpenVZ wheezy minimal template

Steve81

Hello,

Some time ago I saw a trusted provider that offer the download of a debian minimal template.
I don't remember who, so:

Someone have a minimal debian wheezy template to share?

Thanks in advance.

Are these the one from OpenVZ.org with the "broken" sources.list?

One ubuntu one may have locales not configured. These are not the ones we use at VPSDime. I'll publish updated production ones later.

That doesn't bother me as I'm only interested in the Debian ones. Could you write here when you have published them? Thanks

I'm assuming you are aware OpenVZ provides these or am I missing something?

You missed the word "minimal".

Thank you, I'll update and customize them for my new, shinny, kimsufi.

Just tested the debian 7 32/64 bit minimal images. They work great thanks!

• All updates installed
• nano, wget installed
• Timezone is America/Chicago
• All unnecessary services disabled
• All packages removed except the base packages
• Locales configured as en-US.utf8
• Ubuntu 14.04 allows root ssh login by default
• Debians use 6-7MB RAM, Ubuntu's use 12-14MB RAM, CentOS's use 10-12MB RAM
• All tested to be working

I just noticed that I don't get a new host key after reinstalling your new template. Is this something to worry about? Doesn't sound good at all.

Looks like it's a bug: http://forum.proxmox.com/threads/6480-non-unique-ssh-host-keys-on-containers

Which one? The template should have /etc/rc2.d/S15ssh_gen_host_keys file which includes:

#!/bin/sh
ssh-keygen -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key -t rsa -N ''
ssh-keygen -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key -t dsa -N ''
rm -f \$0

Those templates are minimal. Not sure how much more minimal than 200MB you can get.

Any news regarding this?

@serverian Is it possible to get the old templates with working SSH host gen?

@trexos I have a copy of the old ones on my server. PM me if you want a link, don't want to share them publicly without permission.

serverian

Debian 7's should be the latest one as well now.
