Virtualisation.

As part pf the same project that calls for an encrypted filesystem, I'm
looking at running a virtual machine.
The main server is intended to be highly secure and will run a subversion
server as a document repository.
The client then mentioned moving their email and web servers on to this
machine. To keep things secure I think it's best to run this on a VM.
Security / separation is probably more important than performance.
I think Xen looks like the best candidate for the job. Vserver is
fast but doesn't provide as much separation. UML is my other current
option.
We've got a VT-enabled Xeon to run on so it will play nicely with Xen.
Any thoughts?
