Local-machine Kubernetes service unreachable by pods

Followed this guide to starting a local-machine kubernetes cluster: http://kubernetes.io/v1.0/docs/getting-started-guides/docker.html

I've created various pods with .yaml files and everything works, I can access nginx and mysql using container IPs (in the 172.17.x.x range, with docker0), however when I create services, service IPs are in the 10.0.0.x range, unreachable from other containers.

Isn't kube-proxy supposed to create iptables rules automatically, providing access to containers behind the service IP? No iptables changes are happening, and other containers can't reach services. Thanks!

Tim, I did run it again using your steps, no difference, didn't work, however today I switched to the version 1.1 docs here:

http://kubernetes.io/v1.1/docs/getting-started-guides/docker.html

and also switched container versions, currently using:

gcr.io/google_containers/etcd:2.2.1

gcr.io/google_containers/hyperkube:v1.1.1

Lo and behold...it works!!! Containers can now talk to services! Thanks for the responses

I just ran through this (slightly out of date) doc. What I found is that it works if you replace the hyperkube:v0.21.2 with hyperkube:v1.0.7 in the 2 "docker run" lines, and replace 0.18.2 with 1.0.7 in the kubectl download URL.

I have offered a pull-request to update this doc. Sorry for the trouble.
