hi All,

The problem may not be LXC only but I don't what the keyword is to
search for.


Topology:

---- inet ---- 1.2.3.4 firewall (DNAT) 10.0.0.1/8 ---- 10.1.0.0/8 lxc1 +
10.2.0.0/8 lxc2


On firewall:

$ iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d 1.2.3.4 --dport smtp -j DNAT --to
10.1.0.2:25


10.1.0.1 and 10.1.0.2 are containers on lxc01.
10.2.0.2 is a container on lxc02.


Test command:
$ telnet 10.1.0.2 25


It's failing from the 10.1.0.0/8 containers and lxc01.
It's OK on containers on lxc02 (eg. 10.2.0.2).


According to tcpdump packets reaching the iface 10.0.0.1 and they're gone.
Changing proxy_arp and rp_filter on 10.0.0.1 iface doesn't help.


Any idea?
