Hi,
i am asking myself if there is anybody out there who has a running network
backend domU to which other domU''s are connected.
XEN Version:	3.0.2
Kernel Version:	2.6.16.16
The firewall domU is configured as privileged guest with all backend and
frontend drivers compiled into the kernel.
########
[Firewall domU]
name = "firewall"
hostname = "firewall"
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-domU-firewall"
memory = 320
cpus = "0-1"
pci = [ ''01:0a.0'', ''02:09.0'' ]
netif = 1
disk = [''file:/mnt/xenimages/gentoo_firewall.xen,sda1,w'',
        ''file:/mnt/xenimages/gentoo_firewall_swap.xen,sda2,w'']
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"
extra = "gentoo=nodevfs"

The domU is configured as non privileged guest with all frontend drivers.
#########
[domU]
name = "test"
hostname = "test"
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-domU"
memory = 320
cpus = "0-1"
vif = [ ''backend=firewall'' ]
disk = [''file:/mnt/xenimages/gentoo_test.xen,sda1,w'', 				
	''file:/mnt/xenimages/gentoo_test_swap.xen,sda2,w'']
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"
extra = "gentoo=nodevfs"
#########
As result i get this:
# Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working.
Now there are several questions:
1.) Does this really work with ''netif'' or is this just a
placebo?
2.) If it should work, where is the problem with the hotplug scripts?
    In the dom0? In the firewall domU?
3.) What else do i need on the firewall domU?
Regards
Matthias
