multi projects

First of all, if you create project networks separately like that, you need
to specify a different vlan for each network. The reason you can see all of
the instances is because you made both users admins. You can use nova-manage
user create instead of user admin to create regular users. You can also do
nova-manage user modify user "" "" F to turn an admin into a regular user.

They don't have to be on separate networks, especially if that means I'd need to use vLAN manager.

All I'd like to do is have a network pool if IP addresses, which I can then add uses to and give them a finite number of instances to launch/play with; which I can then allow them to use dashboard.

I'm not sure how to create credentials, and implement them, for multiple users; that's my cloud computing knowledge gap at the moment.

You can use FlatDHCPManager in that case and just use one network.

the user create will give each user a unique access and secret key.
