Like many needs there are lots of solutions, none of which are perfect,
or at least without problems the competition says are important ;-) This
is one more thing to study, but it seems as though there is not an
overview of the various solutions for easy comparison.
This list is probably incomplete:
linuxjail - BSD jail is the goal
VMware - I use this for BSD machines
xen - the last I looked ran Linux, not Windows or BSD unpatched
UML - run Linux nicely
VServer - news to me
