I'm gonna forward this to the list:

Yea, i tried promiscuous mode but that still didn't help the lxc guest make outbound connections. > I'm pretty sure this is an issue regarding mac flooding with the lxc > veth interfaces and virtualbox. My understanding is that vbox can only have *one* MAC address per virtual network device. Someone please correct me if I have this wrong. The only thing I can think of at this point is creating a NAT network on the LXC host, and using iptables to forward traffic back and forth between the LXC host and its guests. It's unfortunate that we don't have a native "lightweight" virtualization solution on OSX. Maybe I'll look into booting Linux off a USB drive and running LXC natively on the Macbook via a CentOS or Ubuntu. thanks Sean ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.
