Hi,
It's been a while since I last posted in LQ.. feels great to be back!
I have installed a Xen with 2 VM's inside. They are all under the same subnet.
The Xen machine can see the outside network but both machines in it cannot.
How do I create the bridge correctly (to xenbr0 i guess) so it fixes this?
Here's what I tried:
===========
It's RHEL5.3
1. '/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0' is ok on both VM's
2. iptables service is disabled, system-config-network shows IP,DNS, GW are correct.
3. On the VM's the route -n shows the gw ip though I cannot ping it.
4. checked hosts.allow, hosts.
5. In '/etc/xen/xend-config.sxp' unmarked:
(network-script network-bridge)
(vif-script vif-bridge)
6. in xen/<images_location>/ I modified vm.cfg so vif = [ 'ip=10.2.0.54' ] for one of my virtual machines.
7. I cannot however find '/etc/network/interfaces', can anyone advise if actually in my case it's the
ifcfg-eth0?
7. I basically followed the Bridged Networking scenario in Xen Networking:
http://wiki.kartbuilding.net/index.php/Xen_Networking but to no avail yet.
I'll be happy to post any info, let me know.
Ifconfig on the Xen Parent:
