[Users] Has anyone used an openvz container as a gateway?

[jjs - mainphrame]

I've been on a hardware consolidation and virtualization kick, and have
been converting physical hosts in the office to openvz VMs.

I have a couple of physical boxes each connecting to an internet provider,
and acting as a firewall/gateway, among other things. I was able to convert
these to VMs, after adding the interfaces and creating the bridges and
networks, and it works as expected.

I thought it would be more efficient to use a container, and have been
testing with a container connected to an internal bridge, and an external
bridge. I haven't yet been able to figure out why it won't forward traffic
from the internal interface to the external interface, even though it's
connected to the same networks as the VM which is successfully doing so.

Is it possible to use a container for this, or am I trying to make a
container do something it was designed not to do?
