	Hasn't debian switched to Network Manager too? Seems like there should
be a way to interact with it via scripts without forcing the use of
ifup/ifdown.

	I was somewhat suprised to find debootstrap is incredibly easy to
install by hand on non-debian systems. Even better, there's a package in
fedora. So I've been playing with lxc-debian on fedora 9 and 10. However
I've had problems "Configuring" the opennssh-server package. Removing
that package allows lxc-debian to create the rootfs. I haven't found an
underlying reason yet :/ -- have you run into this problem?

Cheers,
	-Matt
