Hi All, Domain 0 : Fedora 6 Guest 1: Fedora 6 Environment: Server and pc clients are in the same network(class c). Problem: pc can ping domain 0 and very good, no timeout. pc can ping Guest1, say 5 mins, then timeout for some mins, then can ping again. It is not stable at all. Guest1 can ping every pc very well. It is so strang! in config file: it is using ''xenbr0''. What I tried, In domain 0, I switched from eth0 to eth1, even worse:: guest1 can''t ping others either. The server is production DNS server, we are in painful now.... need help. Thanks in advance! x _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Re: [Xen-users] Guest Network Some can Ping, Some can''t Ping
Sorry for the last empty post.... Actually I only have 1 guest on Xen Server. oh, by the way, I assign two ip for the guest1. Like: eth0 and eth0:0 one is for internal ip , the other is for external ip, they are using same mac address, is that alright?

Re: [Xen-users] Guest Network Some can Ping, Some can''t Ping
I use a laptop directly connect to the xen server (domain 0) using cross network cable. It works very well. I started the guest1, It also can ping the guest1 from my laptop. Does that mean the xen server can''t accept too many connections?? or because my switch/hub?? But other servers(not xen) are working fine. could some one help me?

( by the way, I have noticed that you have specified the same ip address on two interfaces of you domain 0. I think the problem is not related to this, but this is incorrect. ) Please show # ifconfig # brctl show in the domain 0. As far as I understand, you can ping domain U from the PCs, but ping is not stable. Can you ping guest from domain 0? Can you ping your PC''s from the domain U? -- WBR, i.m.chubin _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Re: [Xen-users] Guest Network Some can Ping, Some can''t Ping
Hi Igor, Thanks for ur reply! Ye, you are right. I changed the ip for eth1 to 121 now. Thanks. Also I create another xen bridge for eth1 by using: #!/bin/sh dir=$(dirname "$0") "$dir/network-bridge" "$@" vifnum=0 "$dir/network-bridge" "$@" vifnum=1 Then change /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp with the following (network-script my-network-script). Then I assign the guest1 to xenbr1. You know what, it seems fine now. Now I can ping eth0 and eth1 from any pc and looks great. what ''s the reason???? it doesn''t explain anything, does it? I attach the ifconfig and brctl show output here, Thanks again, Igor!

Hi Igor, Thanks for your advice! And /32 is really good idea. I never know that. Ye, I can ping guest now. It seems the eth0 is the problem, hardware problem I guess. .. Thanks a lot!
