Hi All, After much work to make CentOs 4-4 work as one would expect to, I decided to download the newly released XenExpress in hope of finding hints about my problems. I found out that the XenExpress contains glibc-centos43 but not for 44. Could we conclude that Xen is not ready yet for 44? That could explain my problems with iptables when booting dom0 (which runs fine otherwise). Just my 2 cents. - - Virtual Space International Inc.

I do need to sit down and work out the iptables configuration, but there weren''t big changes between them. In fact, if you simply do a "yum update" on a CentOS 4.3 machine, you''ll wind up at CentOS 4.4. I think Xen is just a little bit behind on the RedHat/CentOS release they''re compiling with, which is not unreasonable. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
