It is a bit frustrating when doing the RTFM dance (and I do like the flower page background) only to be stunted by lack of version specifics. Anyways, I searched the archives and other than this question/quest from 2006 (without an answer) I came up blank: --- Alexander Kabanov wrote: the only reason why I would like to have some kind of local/internal interface inside a guest - let people bind services to something that is not accessible from outside and from other guests on the host server. ---- So far I was happy with using RCF 1918 or 127/8 addresses to give services something to bind to that is not accessible from the evil outside. Now I'm trying to roll out something where the evil might be in Misses Jones aka the neighbor vserver. Anything simple/elegant that does not involve writing and maintaining 100 (50x2 in a HA cluster) iptables rules?
