Hi,
I hope this is not a stupid question! A client is currently running a cluster
of Proxmox1.6/OpenVZ servers making extensive use of Shorewall on both the
hosts and the containers. I am investigating the possibility of upgrading to
Proxmox v2.1.
In the Shorewall.net documentation about using Shorewall with OpenVZ there is a
warning:
"If you are running Debian Squeeze, Shorewall will not work in an OpenVZ
container.
This is a Debian OpenVZ issue and not a Shorewall issue."
Proxmox v2.1 runs on Debian Squeeze (6.0).
I assume this means that running the HOST on Debian Squeeze menas that you
cannot run Shorewall in a container - but will it still work to protect the
host or should it not be used at all. I am having trouble accessing any
containers externally (e.g. a squid container) if I install Shorewall on the
host (currently this is in a test VirtualBox environment so not ideal). I'd
like to know whether this is because I've not got the setup correct or it just
won't work!
Secondly - does this apply to the newer kernel (I'm running 2.6.32-14-pve)
and/or newest Debian (6.0.6).
Thanks.
