[Xen-users] mixed environments openBSD - SuSE - debian
hi all, does anybody have experience with mixed plattforms ? XEN-SERVER: dom0 = openBSD 1. domU = SuSE 10 (garloff packages) 2. domU = openBSD 3. domU = debian second question: we want to realize a HA CARP firewall with openBSD on a domU - is it possible to create 10 or more virtual CARP interfaces and connect them to a normal vif interface ? thx a lot in advance regards boris _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

DomU: NetBSD 2.0.2 - 2. DomU: Debian Linux No troubles, runs fine. Regards, Alex. -- "Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work." -- Thomas A.
