THANKS A LOT FOR YOUR REPLY. Your main problem is that you misunderstood how Xen networking works. In short, when you use bridging (the default on most distros), you'll essentially have a domU that behaves just like any other machine on the network. That means you don't need to alter domU config. At all. It wouldn't matter as the OS on domU can change it anyway. What you should do is you should return the domU config to the original one, and learn how to setup DHCP properly. Since the bridge is xenbr0, the process would be the same as setting DHCP server where clients are connected to DHCP server's eth0. -- Fajar _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users
