Fajar,

Thanks for the quick response. I've gotten a bit farther with VMware. It
will allow br0 to be the interface on its guest - it just can't assign that
by dhcp. But when I get the invocation right for a static assignment, it
takes. It had been seeming that br0 for the host interface just wasn't an
option under VMware.

Is a real bridge the only way to get an unique IP on the same LAN for the
LXC guest, or would some combination of assigning a second IP to the LXC
host, and then DNAT'ing ans SNAT'ing to it, work reasonably well? I just ask
in case at some point the cloud provider sees that we're violating their TOS
with the static IP assignment. Most probably they won't.

Whit
