Hi,
this is my situation.
I have a process on the HN which tries to communicate with another process placed in my custom VE through a tcp socket using the address 192.168.254.103 and a specific port. This configuration works perfectly with a minimal debian template, but with my template the two processes cannot even connect each other. There is certainly something that I forgot. Is there a special configuration for the loopback interface ?
Here is the result of an "ifconfig" command :
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1

UP BROADCAST POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MTU:1500 Metric:1
And the route configuration :
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
191.255.255.1 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 venet0
default 191.255.255.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 venet0
Thanks for interest to my problem
