[Fedora-xen] setting IP address for domU in a config file
Hello, I had followed the instructions in http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraXenQuickstart an I am succeeding in creating domain U. The thing is that I want domU to start with some static IP address. How can I do it ? I had tried adding , in the config file for domU, vif = [ ''ip=192.168.0.193'', ''bridge=xenbr0'' ] netmask="255.255.255.0" and run "xm create -c domUconfig" Dom U started , ifconfig -a showed eth0, but without the IP address. Any ideas ? Mark

Mount the image file on your /mnt as explained in the quickstart guide
and create the following files 
 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=static
HWADDR=00:14:22:B1:20:1E
IPADDR=10.1.1.21
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet
/etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=(your hostname here)
GATEWAY=10.1.1.1
Change the values as required. 
Thanks.
