My OVZ server printed an EIP late last night when I ran my ip6tables
script. I'm no kernel hacker but thought someone on this list may want
to know.
My ip6tables command on both the HN and VE stopped working at the same
time. for example 'ip6tables -P INPUT DROP' just hangs but iptables
(IPv4) still works. Havn't rebooted yet in case I can help debug something.

If I can provide you with any more relevant information to help let me know.
Or if I'm just retarded and broke it myself by setting the wrong limits
(quite possible) sorry!

Hello, since 028test10 kernel a number of fixes were introduced in
iptables. Particularly, this patch is very pertinent:
http://git.openvz.org/?p=linux-2.6.18-openvz;a=commit;h=376c9a91a99f709082f60f701fd74f0887f2b97b

So, please, upgrade till recent kernel and inform us if the Ooops will
survive.

Thanks,
Vasily.
