I have the same problem as reported in the original post of this bug ...
except ... my use case is different.

I created an OpenStack "instance" of ubuntu 14.04.    
I installed juju on that "instance" and configured it for Local Provider (re 
lxc).
I then bootstrapped and deployed Juju-GUI which successfully installed into its 
own LXC container.

If I install a desktop on that Openstack Ubuntu instance and log into it
via a remote desktop capability I can start Firefox and point it to the
10.0.30.x address of the juju-gui container and login to juju-gui.

While logged into the OpenStack Ubuntu "instance" I can obviously ping
to/from the juju-gui container and the Ubuntu Host.

But because my OpenStack Ubuntu instance is a 173.39.x.x address and the
juju-gui container is a non-routable 10.x.x.x address I obviously cannot
use Firefox from my Laptop and connect to the juju-gui.

However, I thought I could solve that by installing a Reverse Proxy on
the OpenStack Ubuntu Host and point it to the 10.0.3.x address of Juju-
gui container.

I used NGINX and it almost seems to work.

>From my laptop I point Firefox to the 173.39.x.x address  of the Ubuntu
Host and the NGINX Proxy starts to redirect to the juju-gui.    I see
the Juju-Gui login screen start to appear but it just keeps spinning its
circle and is stuck on "Trying to connect to the Juju environment"
message.

So I am piggy backing on this Bug report since the resulting message is
the same.    I had thought that a Reverse Proxy like this would enable
this access.

My use-case is to have people that from their desktop at work use their
browser to connect to Juju-Gui then deploy "services" to LXC containers
on the OpenStack ubuntu "instance".    Its our own Openstack on our own
hardware so I can install this on a very large compute & network
resource machine.

note:  yes I understand I could deploy juju-gui to a cloud server but
then ... that server & the juju-gui would not be utilizing LXC
afterwards for deployment of charm services.
