Virtual Private Server?

[geekender]

I am not sure what topic this goes under, so I am posting here.

I am trying to set up a box similar to what a web hosting provider would do for a VPS. I am teaching Linux next quarter and want to have a machine that the students can reach from outside our firewall. I used to use UML (user mode linux) but the kernels seem way out of date. Is there a distribution that I am not aware of that people are using for this or is there a newer patch that I haven't seen.....or are they just running vmware?

Take a look at this: http://www.sw-soft.com/en/products/virtuozzo/

They might have an educational license or something, contact their sales team about it
