Hi, referreing the docs on http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_xen_setup_debian_ubuntu_p6 I had set up my networking in Xen 2.0.7, and which used to work. However After updating the Xen to 3.0.0, the same configuration doesnt work any more.. SU-debian:~# xm create -c debian-1 Using config file "debian-1". Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Backend device not found. When viewed under 'xm list' I can see that the domU is paused. I can unpause it and run, however network never comes up. I cannot ping the dummy0 IP from the DomU console. SU-debian:~# xm list Name ID Mem(MiB) VCPUs State Time(s) Domain-0 0 376 1 r----- 6523.0 Tarooza 3 216 1 ------ 452.8 suxen-1Deb 4 64 1 --p--- 0.0 Booting the Domu generates the following error (xend.log) =====[2005-12-14 20:42:02 xend] DEBUG (DevController:133) Waiting for devices vif.
