@David, Maybe adding a "post-up" command to your bridge configuration in /etc/network/interfaces would help. Here is an example :
# The primary network interface auto br0 iface br0 inet static address 172.16.20.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 172.16.20.2 # Workaround for upstart problem post-up /sbin/sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.d/60-bridge-firewalling.conf -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/690433 Title: procps starts too early to correctly set net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_acct -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
