You're right. This is why QEMU guests should be run inside an LXC container :-) Or in the general case, a security-conscious net-setup script should ensure general user invocations are limited to admin-decided subnets with admin-decided firewall rules, so that they just look like processes with ordinary access to everything else. Iptables being what it is, that'd have to be distro specific and sometimes site specific. -- Jamie
