Hi list, I have some problem with network interface in full virtualized vm. I have a poweredge 860 with a xeon 3060 that have Intel VT Technology. The dom0 is a gentoo with the last kernel and tools in portage-tree. I have had install opensuse 10.x and CentOS 4.x with success; I can boot the os without problem. The problem is the network: when I try to ping some address I get "Destionation Unreachable...", but if I ping vm''s local interface is all right. I think that could be a problem with the layer 2 of the vm; if I try to get the arp table with arp command the vm respond like this Address HWtype HWaddress Flags Mask Iface 192.168.1.100 ether (incoplete) <blank> <blank> eth0 where 192.168.1.100 is the address of vm''s ethernet interface. The same if I try to ping from the dom0 to vm. I use HVM virtualization; the network configuration in my conf is: vif = [ ''type:ioemu, mac=00:16:3e:00:00:11,bridge=xenbr0'' ] ne2000=1 I have tried with ne2000=0 but is the same. Somebody have any ideas? Thanks kind regards -- Alessandro R. Hp. http://lord2y.lunimig.org NOTICE This message is for the named person''s use only and it''s confidential.

Alessandro If you have a Broadcom NetXtreme II NIC (which is common in Dell boxes) then this might be the solution to your problem: http://mywiki.ncsa.uiuc.edu/wiki/Dell_PE1950_NIC_Firmware_Workaround 80n On 12/30/06, Alessandro R. <lord2y@gmail.com> wrote:> > Hi list, > > I have some problem with network interface in full virtualized vm. > I have a poweredge 860 with a xeon 3060 that have Intel VT Technology. > > The dom0 is a gentoo with the last kernel and tools in portage-tree. > > I have had install opensuse 10.x and CentOS 4.x with success; I can > boot the os without problem. > The problem is the network: when I try to ping some address I get > "Destionation Unreachable...", but if I ping vm''s local interface is > all right. > I think that could be a problem with the layer 2 of the vm; if I try > to get the arp table with arp command the vm respond like this > > Address HWtype HWaddress Flags Mask > Iface > 192.168.1.100 ether (incoplete) <blank> <blank> > eth0 > > where 192.168.1.100 is the address of vm''s ethernet interface. > > The same if I try to ping from the dom0 to vm. > I use HVM virtualization; the network configuration in my conf is: > > vif = [ ''type:ioemu, mac=00:16:3e:00:00:11,bridge=xenbr0'' ] > ne2000=1 > > I have tried with ne2000=0 but is the same. > > Somebody have any ideas? > > Thanks > > kind regards > > -- > Alessandro R. > Hp. http://lord2y.lunimig.org > > NOTICE > This message is for the named person''s use only and it''s confidential. > If you receive this message in error, please immediately delete it and > and notify the sender.

But I have the same problem on my notebook that have this ethernet controller: Intel Corporation PRO/100 VE Network Connection Yesterday I tried to use a paravirtualized env; I ran a modified gentoo. The network works fine... I have no idea... please help me. -- Alessandro R. Hp. http://lord2y.lunimig.org NOTICE This message is for the named person''s use only and it''s confidential.
