Re: [Xen-users] Networking change in Xen unstable

[Takeshi Sone <ts1@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Ian,
Thanks for explanation.
I don't and won't (I think) have services on dom0 for domUs.

I will modify /etc/xen/script/network to not use veth0 so I
won't have to manually kill veth0 after every reboot.
Wish there were easier way to do it..
