I bailed on neutron. I did a packstack install with CONFIG_NEUTRON_INSTALL=n and got a set-up with one control host and one (so far) compute node from which I can ssh/ping hosts on my network. ...but not all hosts, since there's no easy routing into my private OpenStack network. Lars, I believe that when you suggested that we set up a bridge on the neutron allinone install you helped me through first, we created an ovs bridge with the IP of the primary interface, then made that interface part of the bridge. That was so that packets hitting that interface would traverse the bridge to the private network(s) on which the instances reside, so that they would have general access to my company intranet, thus the internet in general. How do I make my cloud instances visible on my intranet with this configuration?
