Heya Bruce, Thanks for packaging the patch as a debdiff, that helps.
I see this is already fixed in Jaunty, so I'll close the development task for that. Because Hardy is already released, the process for getting changes into it involves a bit more paperwork, and requires structuring the debdiffs slightly differently. They are targeted to 'hardy-proposed' instead of 'hardy', and the version numbering increments by .1's. I fixed up your debdiff accordingly and include it for your review. I've also gone ahead and uploaded the fix to hardy-proposed so it'll be available for testing. The 'paperwork' is described at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates - basically the process is to help ensure changes that go out to everyone are 100% regression free and fix issues that really do need fixed. I'll fill out the bits I know, could you please fill in the remaining blanks? That part is necessary (along with testing) in order to get the fix approved to move from hardy-proposed to hardy. ** Attachment added: "libvirt_0.4.0-2ubuntu8.2.debdiff" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/23692402/libvirt_0.4.0-2ubuntu8.2.debdiff ** Description changed: The default masquerade rule appears to be: iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.122.0/24 -j MASQUERADE but this causes all internally routed guest to guest traffic to be masqueraded too (breaking such things as redhat cluster dlm connections in my case). replacing the rule with the following seems to be a good solution: iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.122.0/24 -d ! 192.168.122.0/24 -j MASQUERADE + + [Impact] + Causes inappropriate masquerading of internally routed traffic, which makes it difficult to test virtual clusters (among other things) + + [How Addressed in Development] + This patch is a cherrypick from upstream's git tree.
