hi,
I have 5 guests on the server, each guest has own localhost IP, like
127.0.0.5, 127.0.0.6 etc. (guests /etc/hosts has record like
"127.0.0.5 localhost") it seemed the only option available. can
someone tell me is it good approach? is there anything else beside
this? The reason why I want to have a local IP inside a guest - to be
able to bind services to a local interface that are not accessible
from outside, for example:
one can access IMAP (over ssl) using guest real IP
webmail app can access IMAP service bound to local IP
thanks
