not really bug related, but in case somebody else is playing around with this and ends up here: I also needed to add a firewall rule to UFW before DHCP from my unprivileged containers started working: ufw allow in on lxcbr0 (this can probably be restricted a bit further to only allow DHCP requests)

Error: conflicting protocols specified: ip6 vs. ip ^^^^^^^^ Failed to setup lxc-net. lxc-net.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE lxc-net.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'. Failed to start LXC network bridge setup. Turns out this is due to a syntax error in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lxc/lxc-net on line 174: add rule ip6 lxc postrouting ip saddr ${LXC_IPV6_NETWORK} ip daddr != ${LXC_IPV6_NETWORK} counter masquerade; Should mention "ip6 saddr" and "ip6 daddr" in the line, like so: add rule ip6 lxc postrouting ip6 saddr ${LXC_IPV6_NETWORK} ip6 daddr != ${LXC_IPV6_NETWORK} counter masquerade; After manually editing the /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lxc/lxc-net file to include the correct ip6 syntax, lxc-net starts up fine and IPV6 networking works on my LXC containers. This fix seems to already live in the upstream lxc project on github: https://github.com/lxc/lxc/commit/4de047f51365cc06a626ee9de49fec5f76556c66#diff-f16b43004d25f547f78c7457ba74cb05eaaa2bcf979dac8173314916ef36e7f4 and as far as I can tell made it into lxc-utils 5.0.3. Unfortunately Ubuntu jammy ships with lxc-utils 5.0.0 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/2053011/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
