NAT not working in a container












2















Following instructions I've installed docker on ubuntu 13.04 (and 12.04 + 3.8 kernel), pulled the base container and started a shell inside it. It got a private IP and can ping it's default gateway but can't connect to any host outside, so no apt-get for me.



I have "net.ipv4.conf.all.forwarding = 1" in my sysctl and have POSTROUTING rules in iptables/nat table.



Did the docker installer forgot to add some rules or i'm missing something?

Do you have the MASQUERADE rule?



Can you try to start the daemon with docker -d -b testbr0 and try again?



This will create a new bridge and setup all iptables rules for it.



If it works, it probably mean a iptables -t nat -F occurred at some point and the nat rules for docker have been lost. You can either manually recreate them or more easily, remove the docker bridge and restart docker :)

  • By any chance, would the issue be DNS linked? you can try to run a docker instance with 'docker run -dns 8.8.8.8 ping google.com'. If not, I suggest you submit an issue on the docker github.
