It''s current in CVS.
Guess I need to document how to use the bridge and tap interface and
post the TAP wrapper and bridge script.
The bridge in Solaris is slightly different than in Linux/*BSD in the fact that
the guest can''t actually talk to the host and vice versa due to the way
the bridge works. But this can be worked around by using a second
tap or user-net to enable communication between the guest and host.
Let me get a current tarball posted of the current CVS source, plus some
Solaris appropriate patches that haven''t been committed to CVS yet
and post that, along with the TAP/bridge files. Maybe tommorow.
