Can you explain why that is? Other namespaces don't behave this way. For example, a PID namespace doesn't hide the processes at the system level. It just gives additional nested names to the namespaced processes and having objects visible at the system level is very useful for monitoring and management. Are there inherent reasons why network namespace should be very different from other namespaces in this regard? Thanks. -- tejun
