Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] xen0=2.6.7 network problem in xenU (SOLVED)
hmmm... loading the ipv6 module caused this problem. I think maybe i've seen that before too.
 
Can someone please test a 2.6.7-xen0 kernel with ipv6 loaded and then a 2.6.7-xenU kernel in another domain and see if they can get any network traffic?
 
thanks

Now that i've finally got another domain booting on my 2.6.7 xen server, I can't seem to get networking going in a xenU (2.6.7 also) domain.
 
the xenU domain receives packets just fine (only broadcast and multicast though as it can't respond to arp requests), but can't transmit anything. Even by manually adding the arp entry, nothing still gets sent. A tcpdump in the xen0 domain doesn't show any packets coming out of xenU, and the counters on eth0 in xenU aren't incrementing for sent packets.
 
Any ideas? this is an identical xenU domain that was running fine on my other server.
 
thanks
