Depending on the router you have and size of the network (looks large?) it could take from 10 - 90 seconds for the router to arp the new mac. Hello, Tim. Thanks for your reply.As you suggested, I tried assigning a static MAC address, but nothing changed. I've been trying some firewall rules and, I don't know exactly why/how, now I can ping from inside the VM (192.168.1.10) to my PC (192.168.1.190). NAT in my firewall looks like this now: /bin/echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward iptables --table nat --append POSTROUTING --source 192.168.1.10 \ --destination 192.168.1.190 --jump MASQUERADE iptables --table nat --append POSTROUTING --source 192.168.1.190 \ --destination 192.168.1.10 --jump MASQUERADE iptables --table nat --append POSTROUTING --source 192.168.1.0/24 \ --destination ! 192.168.0.0/24 --out-interface eth1 \ --jump MASQUERADEAs I said, I don't exactly know how to tell iptables to forward the traffic from eth0 to vif1.0 and viceversa. I guess that, with those rules, now traffic from the VM can reach mi PC, thus ping works. But since vif1.0 has the IP address 192.168.1.3 (dom0's local IP) instead of 192.168.1.10 (VM's local IP), I guess mi PC don't know where to go when I tell him to ping 192.168.1.10. Any hints? Thanks in advance. P.S. Should vif1.0 have 192.168.1.3 or should it have 192.168.1.10? I have a machine with two network interfaces, eth0 and eth1. Eth0 is connected to the LAN (192.168.1.0/24) and eth1 to my router (ip:80.36.214.x, gw: 80.36.214.y). This server is acting as a proxy-cache as well. I also have a VPN between the twosubnets 192.168.0.0/24 and 192.168.1.0/24. I have a running kernel 2.6.16.19 with Xen 3.0.2 on a Debian x86_64 Sid(custom kernel). I want to use Xen virtual machines only internally (as any other normal PC inside the 192.168.1.0/24 network, but with no need to be accessed from the Internet). So, I have created a virtual machine using the xen-tools package provided by Steve:[1] http://packages.debian.org/unstable/utils/xen-tools These are the parameters of /etc/xen-tools/xen-tools.conf: dir = /home/xen debootstrap = 1 size = 2Gb memory = 128Mb swap = 256Mb fs = ext3 dist = etch image = sparse gateway = 192.168.1.3 netmask = 255.255.255.0 passwd = 1 kernel = /boot/xen0-linux-2.6.16.19-xen initrd = mirror = http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian/ I created the image with this command: xen-create-image --hostname=xen01 --ip=192.168.1.10 --passwd The /etc/network/interfaces in the virtual machine (dom1): auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.1.10 gateway 192.168.1.3 netmask 255.255.255.0 Everything went fine: - I can connect to the virtual machine from the host (192.168.1.3) - I can connect to the Internet from inside the virtual machine. But: - I can't ping the virtual machine 192.168.1.10 from any other PC in the 192.168.1.0/24 network (but the host 192.168.1.3). It says "Destination Host Unreachable". - I can't ping any host in the 192.168.1.0/24 network from inside the virtual machine 192.168.1.10. It does not complain, though. I have set up /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp using: (network-script network-route) (vif-script vif-route) Honestly, I don't have any other reason to choose routing instead of bridging except the fact that I tried for days and days with the bridging thing and I could make it work, so I said "next try another option". When I was using bridging, I could ping from inside a VM to a PC, but not from a PC to the VM. Again, I could really tell what was wrong (I am not an expert with iptables, I admit it). My firewall looks like this (short version): BOF ---------------------------- iptables --policy INPUT DROP iptables --append INPUT --in-interface ! eth1 --jump ACCEPT iptables --append INPUT --match state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED \ --jump ACCEPT iptables --append INPUT --proto ICMP --jump ACCEPT # SSH iptables --append INPUT --proto tcp --match state --dport ssh \ --state NEW --source a.b.c.d --jump ACCEPT # VPN iptables --append INPUT --in-interface eth1 --proto udp \ --sport isakmp --dport isakmp --source 213.96.x.y \ --destination ${VPN_SRC} --jump ACCEPT iptables --append INPUT --in-interface eth1 --proto tcp \ --sport isakmp --dport isakmp --source 213.96.x.y \ --destination 80.36.x.y --jump ACCEPT iptables --append INPUT --in-interface eth1 --proto ah \ --source 213.96.x.y --destination 80.36.x.y --jump ACCEPT iptables --append INPUT --in-interface eth1 --proto esp \ --source 213.96.x.y --destination 80.36.x.y --jump ACCEPT # Transparent proxy iptables --table nat --append PREROUTING --in-interface eth0 \ --source 192.168.1.0/24 --destination ! 192.168.1.0/24 \ --proto tcp --dport 80 --jump REDIRECT --to-port 3128 # Activate Network Address Translation /bin/echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward iptables --table nat --append POSTROUTING --source 192.168.1.0/24 \ --destination ! 192.168.0.0/24 --out-interface eth1 \ --jump MASQUERADE EOF ---------------------------- 80.36.x.y is the gateway in the machine (my end) 213.96.x.y is the gateway of the other end of the VPN So, as far as I know, after reading as many docs as Google could provide me with, I guess the problem is that traffic is not "routed" from the eth0 to the vif. My ifconfig (summarized version) looks like this: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr ------ inet addr:192.168.1.3 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr ------ inet addr:80.36.x.y Bcast:80.36.214.191 Mask:255.255.255.224 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 vif3.0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF inet addr:192.168.1.3 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.255 Also, as a final note, when I was attempting to make it work by using bridging, my server stopped forwarding connections from the LAN to the Internet, so that was one more reason to try the "routed" setup. At least now I can let people work while I try to finish up this setup and don't have to go to the office on Saturday :) Any hints? If you need any more information, please let me know.
