As a heads up to everyone, VMware requires you to take special
precautions when trying to put a virtual nic into promiscuous mode,
which is required for Xen networking to work.
I spent a fair amount of time diagnosing Xen network problems when it
wasn''t Xen at all. As I was just beginning to learn Xen, I was
convinced it was something I was doing wrong, when it wasn''t at all.
Here are some docs on how to get the virt nic into promiscuous mode:
