Hello,

First of all I want to say, that veth is less secure only in untrusted environments. The thing is that many people use OpenVZ for hosting: they sell VEs to various people. In such case this is rather insecure to give veth device to VE, because it will be able to create any ethernet packets, can be sniffered and etc.

Secondly, why venet0 in lanserv bothers you? Let it be there, but not configured. It will not prevent veth somehow! Smile

As concerns appropriate routes for veth. There is a file /usr/sbin/vznetcfg for it. It is a bash script, which is invoked by vzctl on VE start. Look at its source and you'll understand what to do in order to add appropriate routes.

HTH,
Vasily.
