Hi chaps,
host = laptop
dom0 = debian testing
domU = various
problem = providing wireless to my domUs
references =
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-5-manual/Virtualization-en-US/ch-virt-laptop-configurations.html
That ref has been good so far in that a CentOS instance has got an IP
with dummy0.
host machine:-
cat /etc/issue && cat /etc/network/interfaces
Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 \n \l
# -*- sh -*-
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp
iface eth2 inet dhcp
iface eth3 inet dhcp
iface eth4 inet dhcp
iface dummy0 inet static
address 10.1.1.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 10.0.0.255
# arp=yes
# peerdns yes
a CentOS instance
cat /etc/issue && cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-dummy
&& ifconfig

soooooo close, as at least I have an address ;). Point is that there
is an /etc/rc.foo/bah script in the reference above that''s very Redhat
specific. Has any one something similar on a Debian system? I know (or
think) that the next step is to allow the domUs access to the outside
world but I''m not sure how this is done.
