[lxc-users] make a nginx webserver in a lxc container available to the local wireless lan

[Eldon Kuzhyelil]

Hi,
I have followed that
https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/lxc.html#lxc-network and changed my
lxc config file like below

lxc.network.type = veth
lxc.network.link = br0

 and in my /etc/network/interfaces i have followed this link
https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/network-configuration.html#bridging

and my interface file looks like this now

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto br0
iface br0 inet static
        address 192.168.0.10(my ip address when connected through ethernet)
        network 192.168.0.0
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        broadcast 192.168.0.255
        gateway 192.168.0.1
        bridge_ports eth0
        bridge_fd 9
        bridge_hello 2
        bridge_maxage 12
        bridge_stp off

Now bring up the bridge:

sudo ifup br0



But after rebooting i am still not able to connect to internet using
ethernet or wifi.
What to do?

I am using kubuntu 14.04 and i have installed nginx in one container
and want that webpage from my lxc container to be visible in another
laptop connected

to my private LAN

Thankyou
