[Xen-users] So close....



Hello list,

So close, and yet so far ...
I have everything working, as far as I can tell, except for networking.
And that's -half- working.  I hope someone out there can help.  Here's
the situation:
dom0: full network access in and out via wireless interface wlan0.  Can
ping dom1.  
dom1: can ping dom0, but no connectivity to the wide world beyond.
Pings result in:
dom1:~# ping 192.168.1.1
PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
>From 192.168.1.110 icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable

-------------------------------------------

Furthermore, starting dom1 seems to result in external dom0 network
connections having problems.  I was ssh'd to dom0 from an external box,
started dom1, and found that my ssh connection was hung.  Attempts at
new ssh connections resulted in "No Route to Host" errors.  After
restarting the dom0 ssh daemon from the physical console, all was well
again.  After that, ssh sessions fail intermittently, in a way that
seems associated with starting a domU.

While running tcpdump on dom0 against wlan0, I can see arp requests that
have originated from dom1, and I can see the arp responses.  But it
seems like dom1 does not receive the responses, thus the "no route to
host" errors.

Thoughts?  This could be an ndiswrapper bug of some sort (maybe it
doesn't correctly support promiscuous operation) but haven't had a
chance to test against a wired network for comparison.

TIA,
Eric
