I suspect the problem is that your kernel (especially the ubuntu
one) is compiled without CONFIG_NET_NS=y.

> clone(child_stack=0, flags=CLONE_NEWNS|0x6c000000|SIGCHLD) = -1 EINVAL

You are sending clone the flags LCON_NEWNS, CLONE_NEWNET, CLONE_NEWPID,
CLONE_NEWUTS and CLONE_NEWIPC.  Of those, CLONE_NEWNET is the newest
one.

Are you free to recompile your kernel?

thanks,
