crossbow discuss - Jun 2008 - problems trying the "getting started" demo

I have installed on a VirtualBox vm the crossbow ISO

Now I''m trying to create the network map described in the "getting
started" pdf  I have this situation:
On global zone, I have the real NIC: e1000g0 with ip 10.0.2.15 
(VirtualBox NAT this IP, I can get web access with it)
I have created an etherstub (etherstub n?2) with 2 vnics (vnic5 and 
vnic6), I''ve plumbed vnic5 in the global zone with ip 192.160.50.50

I have other etherstub (etherstub n1) withi the vnics 2, 3 and 4

I have created an etherstub2-zone, witch uses the vnic 6 to connect with 
the global zone. At this point, no problem at all

But know I want to add a vnic of etherstub 1 to the etherstub2-zone to 
make the connection between  the global zone (192.160.50.50) and a new 
zone that will have, for example, vnic2 in the 192.168.1.0 lan (etherstub 1)

When I try to plumb for exmaple vnic 4 to the etherstub2-zone, I  get 
this error:
"ifconfig: cannot open link "vnic4":DLPI     link does not
exist"

What I''m doing wrong? I think it''s a problem of zone
configuration, more
than crossbow thing... When I installed the etherstub2-zone I set the 
properties:
set ip-type=exclusive
set physical=vnic5

 If you can help me, I will appreciate it. I''m talking here in Buenos 
Aires with networking proffesors of the Universidad de Buenos Aires, and 
I''m trying to convince them to use crossbow in their practical clases 
with students. But first, I''m trying to build a nice demo, where I can 
show them some Qos configuration. and other cool stuff to do with crossbow..

you need an ''add net; set physical=xyz; end'' for each
interface you
would like in the zone, even if they are VNICs. You need to reboot the 
zone to take effect.

reading early on again, you said vnic5 is plumbed in the global zone, so 
maybe your ''net'' statement for etherstub2-zone has a typo
(should be
vnic4 not vnic5).

Can you try the steps as it is in section 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3 with the same
names to that it becomes easy to identify the problem ?. You can cut/paste the
commands. BTW, I have just uploaded the 1.2 version of the paper on the original
thread, so please use it to try out the steps.
