Hi Brian,
Kernel logger (klogd) requires access to the kernel messages buffer
which could allow klogd running inside vserver to "steal"
messages intended for the root server.
This capability inside vserver is controlled by CAP_SYS_ADMIN
so if you have a special purpose vserver for monitoring etc..
then simply add CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the appropriate vserver conf file
(beware of the security consequences) and your klogd should run ok
However, if it's a generic vserver ( looks like this is the case here ) then
it shouldn't be running klogd.
