Hello all,

I am running Folsom with Quantum v2, via Devstack. Am trying to use Ubuntu UEC 
image to spawn VMs, but when the VM instance boots, it is not able to contact 
the metadata server in order to (among other things) inject the public key 
needed in order for me to be able to SSH into the instance. See 
http://paste.openstack.org/show/28764/ for a log snippet if needed.

Following the (incorrect, bug reported) instructions found at 
http://docs.openstack.org/folsom/openstack-compute/admin/content/configuring-openstack-compute-basics.html#enabling-access-to-vms-on-the-compute-node
 (search for "If you want to use the 10.04 Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud images" to 
get to the instructions, and change the metadata port from the incorrect '8773' 
to the correct '8775') I added the rule into iptables, with no luck… I still 
cannot reach the metadata server at 169.254.169.254:80. When I dump the 
iptables rules for the 'nat' table, I see that my added rule is being hit, but 
it's still not working:

$ sudo iptables -t nat -L -v -n
Chain PREROUTING (policy ACCEPT 982 packets, 159K bytes)
 pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination

0.0.0.0/0

I searched and found this thread from this list: 
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg16569.html
Does this mean that the Nova metadata service cannot be used with Quantum when 
using multiple tenant networks (L3 arch)? (this is the model that Devstack 
implements in my setup)
If the above is true, can I revert to another supported configuration (and 
kindly give me a pointer as to how?) 
Finally, any plans to fix the metadata service so that it will work with 
Quantum's L3 service, and enable this out of the box with Devstack? (dare to 
dream :)

Thanks and regards,
Will
