Hi,<br>
I'm trying to set up a VE as a Samba PDC Server ( template is a Centos
5).<br>
As veth documetation says:<br>
<br>
"<i>veth</i> allows broadcasts in CT, so you can use even a DHCP
server
inside a CT, or a samba server with domain broadcasts or other such
stuff."<br>
<br>
So I've tried to use this kind of virtual ethernet device. I've
followed the sample configuration at OpenVZ site. One of the steps is
to configure the<br>
device in VE like this:<br>
<pre> [host-node]# vzctl enter 101
[ve-101]# /sbin/ifconfig eth0 0
[ve-101]# /sbin/ip addr add XX.XX.XX.XX dev eth0
[ve-101]# /sbin/ip route add default dev eth0
</pre>
Now, the interface looks this way:<br>
<br>
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:18:51:EC:5C:E8 <br>
inet addr:XX.XX.XX.XX Bcast:0.0.0.0
Mask:255.255.255.255<br>
<br>
But if we try to start nmbd daemon we get the following messages:<br>
<br>
[2008/12/01 13:49:04, 3] nmbd/nmbd.c:open_sockets(615)<br>
open_sockets: Broadcast sockets opened.<br>

not adding non-broadcast interface XX.XX.XX.XX<br>
[2008/12/01 13:49:04, 0] lib/interface.c:load_interfaces(229)<br>
WARNING: no network interfaces found<br>
[2008/12/01 13:49:04, 0] nmbd/nmbd_subnetdb.c:create_subnets(190)<br>
create_subnets: No local interfaces !<br>
[2008/12/01 13:49:04, 0] nmbd/nmbd_subnetdb.c:create_subnets(191)<br>
create_subnets: Waiting for an interface to appear ...<br>
<br>
The problem seems related to network mask which is 255.255.255.255<br>
So, what can we do? What about changing netmask to 255.255.255.0? How
would be the gateway then?<br>
<br>
Any help will be welcome.<br>
<br>
Regards.<br>
Frank<br>
