Hi,

I have a (KVM) windows server 2008 guest and I cannot connect to it from a public IP.

The host has a single eth0 (94.....) but there are a number of other IP addresses mapped (91....) which are configured via eth0:0 aliases (i.e. eth0:0, eth0:1 etc.)

There are a number of openvz containers with internal IPs (10....) and I use shorewall (http://www.myatus.co.uk/2009/08/31/guide-firewall-and-router-with-proxmox/) to route the traffic. This works fine, but I just cannot achieve the same thing with KVM.

Things I have tried:

- using vmbr0 with a 10... IP address with the eth0 as the gateway (netmask 255.255.255.255)
- using vmbr0 with the public address (91...), obviously the 91.. address isn't mapped to eth0:X
I have the tried the same with NAT. In addition I tried NAT with DHCP and it received a 10.0.2.X IP (from proxmox I assume - there is no dhcp server running anywhere else!). I then mapped the 91... address to eth0:X and tried a port forward, but no luck.

I am running out of ideas. I realise I have a custom setup with the firewall, but I just don't get what to do :(

Relevant configuration files (this is from the host with 2 openvz contains and 1 KVM machine):
