[lxc-devel] lxc-stop/start drops other lxc network connections

[Dusty Hall]

Guido,

  Thanks for the info and link.  It appears that is the issue.  I had
problems manually setting the br0 hw address so I incremented it and
added it to the lxc configuration.  IE:

br0 -> 02:35:0c:76:ad:cd

lxc0.conf:
lxc.network.hwaddr = 02:35:0c:76:ae:00

Thanks,
