I've got a vserver whose IP is 192.168.0.1 and another whose is
192.168.0.2. I can ping between these two vservers fine, however, I
tried to setup mysql to connect from .1 to .2 and found that it was
using the host's actual IP to connect, instead of the private IP:

$ mysqladmin -h 192.168.0.2 ping
connect to server at '192.168.0.2' failed
error: 'Host '212.112.147.194' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL
server'

I used tcpdump to look at the different interfaces, and it was only
when I looked at the loopback did I see the traffic happening:

18:51:54.867738 212.112.147.194.43166 > 192.168.0.2.mysql: S

How can I make it so that the vserver is communicating with the
private IP instead of the public one? I want to do this so I can allow
some vservers the ability to access the mysql, but not others. I can
simply add 212.112.147.194 to the tables to be able to connect, but
then all the vservers would be able to connect, when I only want
192.168.0.1 to be able to connect, but not 192.168.0.3 for example.

Thanks for any pointers! Here is some more info:

/etc/vservers/db.conf:
#
# the vserver which runs the databases
#
S_DOMAINNAME="db"
S_HOSTNAME="db"
IPROOT="192.168.0.2"
IPROOTMASK="255.255.255.0"
IPROOTDEV="eth0"
S_CAPS="CAP_NET_RAW"

/etc/vservers/zun.conf:
S_HOSTNAME="zun"
IPROOT="192.168.0.1"
IPROOTMASK="255.255.255.0"
IPROOTDEV="eth0"
S_FLAGS="lock nproc"
ULIMIT="-u 256 -n 1024"
S_CAPS="CAP_NET_RAW"

Thanks!
