Could you show us the configuration file of the DomU and the configuration of you bridge in /etc/network/interfaces. If you have created the bridge with the script network-bridge try to create the manually and try to start the guest with this bridge. So a possible bridge configuration could look like this: auto xenbr0 iface xenbr0 inet static address IP-ADDRESS of Dom0 netmask NETMASK-FOR-THE-NETWORK gateway GATEWAY-OF-THE-NETWORK bridge_ports eth0 bridge_stp off (Spanning tree protocol is disabled in this case) bridge_fd 0 (sets the default forward delay) The configuration for eth0 then must look like this: auto eth0 iface eth0 inet manual The configuration line for vif in the DomU configuration should look like this: vif [ ''bridge=xenbr0,ip=IP-OF-DOMU,mac=WANTED-MAC-ADDRESS'' ] Best Regards _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xen.org http://lists.xen.org/xen-users

Could you show us the configuration file of the DomU and the configuration of you bridge in /etc/network/interfaces. If you have created the bridge with the script network-bridge try to create the manually and try to start the guest with this bridge. So a possible bridge configuration could look like this: auto xenbr0 iface xenbr0 inet static address IP-ADDRESS of Dom0 netmask NETMASK-FOR-THE-NETWORK gateway GATEWAY-OF-THE-NETWORK bridge_ports eth0 bridge_stp off (Spanning tree protocol is disabled in this case) bridge_fd 0 (sets the default forward delay) The configuration for eth0 then must look like this: auto eth0 iface eth0 inet manual The configuration line for vif in the DomU configuration should look like this: vif [ ''bridge=xenbr0,ip=IP-OF-DOMU,mac=WANTED-MAC-ADDRESS'' ] Best Regards Hello, so it looks like that you still have the Xen network-scripts active in xend-config.sxp. Devices like pethX only get created by this scripts. When you setup a bridge manually you should disable this scripts. Only the vif-script vif-bridge have to be active so that the vif device of the DomUs can be connected to the bridge. The geust with the ID 12 has a vif device so its the guest with the name 10.10.10.221, does this guest can access the network or/and is reacheble from the network?
