Created attachment 474013 [details]
Suport for OpenVZ host server; check pid of running instance via vzpid

Description of problem:
Fail2ban can't start on OpenVZ host server if any guest has a fail2ban instance started - because of PID check in init script.
Prepared patch for init script is added as attachment.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.8.4

How reproducible:
Start fail2ban on openvz host with guest running fail2ban too.
  
Actual results:
Can't start becouse of pid

Expected results:
Can start

I believe the getpid check is removed in 0.8.11-1.  Reopen if this is not fixed.
