Hi, I have successfully installed xen on fc5 but have a problem with the network. When I boot into the xen0 kernel I cannot access the internet. Fedora''s networking tool shows that eth0 is inative, if I click on activate I receive a short error message stating ''unsuccessful''. The output of ifconfig is: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:26:54:14:FA:B0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:0 Metric:1 RX packets:17 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:2 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:4496 (4.3 KiB) TX bytes:432 (432.0 b) lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:275 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:275 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:34710 (33.8 KiB) TX bytes:34710 (33.8 KiB) peth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF inet6 addr: fe80::fcff:ffff:feff:ffff/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:80 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:84 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:12856 (12.5 KiB) TX bytes:7250 (7.0 KiB) Interrupt:19 Base address:0x2000 vif0.0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF inet6 addr: fe80::fcff:ffff:feff:ffff/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:2 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:20 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:432 (432.0 b) TX bytes:4734 (4.6 KiB) xenbr0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF inet6 addr: fe80::200:ff:fe00:0/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:13 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:6 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:4286 (4.1 KiB) TX bytes:468 (468.0 b) I assume it''s either something to do with a driver for my nics not being present in the xen kernel or something to do with the bridging. Help appreciated. Mark ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mark Curry mcc28_x@yahoo.co.uk ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
