> Have you got some sample configuration ? >The configuration isn''t Xen-specific -- you just go into your DomU and give it an IP address the same way you''d assign an IP address on any other system (so, in SuSE, editing /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0... or using one of the many other available mechanisms). Consequently, when you ask for a "sample configuration", I''m not clear what you''re asking about. Are you saying you don''t know how to assign an IP in SuSE? If so, you should probably look into that before you start playing with Xen. Now, if you don''t have your DomU bridged to the rest of your network, they won''t be able to talk even after you have an IP assigned... but that''s a completely separate issue. Now i have assigned the offical ip adress to the domainU.... I can ping the ip from the Domain-0 And i have assigned the ip to a virtual ip on eth0:1 But what should i do the next ?

Why?> But what should i do the next ? >You should be *bridging* between your physical eth0 and the domUs. Consequently, there''s no need for the dom0 to know what address the domUs are using at all -- if the bridge is up, packets will flow across the bridge to the dom0''s physical ethernet device without any configuration on the dom0 which is in any way specific to the IP in question or to Xen. In short, I think you''re making this much harder than it needs to be. Look at the network-bridge script which comes with Xen to see what steps are generally used to start things up -- and if things don''t work, look be sure to look into whether your firewall is obstructing the flow.
