We've had Plesk running inside vserver for quite a while;
I know from speaking to someone inside Plesk that they are interested in
making Plesk vserver aware but I don't know if they've actually done
anything towards that goal. Take the rumor for what its worth. One thing I
can tell you is that they have been very helpful in getting the Plesk to
work inside vserver, at least to me. I guess if you're doing nything
specific they would be glad to help you.
