I just upgraded a server from the previous released kernel to the new 2.6.18-53.1.4.el5.028stab053.4 and now samba inside a VE configured with a veth interface no longer functions.

I can ping to and from the server, DNS is working properly, but I can not do an nmblookup from inside the VE, nor access shares configured in samba on the VE.

I will revert back to the previous version and see if samba starts working properly again.

I'm not sure what the problem is now, but reverting back to the previous kernel didn't help.

Should I be able to ping -b broadcastip from within a VE configured with a veth interface? I cannot, and I thought this was one of the differences between veth and venet?

I had the same problem. Somehow iptables got configured on.

If you want to run with a firewall, be sure the settings didn't change for you. If you don't:

chkconfig iptables off
/etc/init.d/iptables stop

and maybe

chkconfig ip6tables off
/etc/init.d/ip6tables stop

This is the first time I've had to setup an OpenVZ VE with a veth interface and even after verifying that iptables is stopped, I'm still not able to ping the broadcast address from within the VE.

Do I need to bridge my veth and eth0 interfaces in order to get this working properly?

Is it possible to ping broadcast from within the ve without a bridge present?

Hi swindmill,

I am with the same problem, but using debian etch.
Did you solves this?

Yes, my problem was caused by my veth interface not being bridged with my physical interface (eth0)

I created a bridge (br0) and added both eth0 and my veth interface to it and all is well.
