Howdy,
Hmm, I'm unfortunately not familiar with that service, or what the setup might look like when you have an account with them.
I suppose the question comes down to this though -- when you get a server from them, do you end up with a fairly standard setup containing a Virtualmin supported distro/version?
You can see the supported distros here:

Yes, it's the supported on Centos or Ubuntu, but wondering if Virtualmin will work within the container
Here are some info http://askubuntu.com/questions/293275/what-is-lxc-and-how-to-get-started http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KnmRdK69qM
because I am not familiar with this kind of setup too and I am not using that service yet. Thanks!
Ah, LXC... I was more familiar with the abbreviation than the actual term "Linux Container" :-)
I haven't heard many reports of folks using that.
However, with my understanding of LXC -- it, in theory, should work just fine.

Do a google search on docker containers. it will give you a good launching startpoint. it is not a vm per se..it is much more akin to a BSD jail in many respects.
