Hello @all,

thanks for all the helpfull answers in this mailing list. They helped me compiling a new kernel 2.6.10.11 with Xen 2.0.6 (my first one), setting up a dom0 with RAID, LVM and loop devices for domU, integrating a second network as xen-br1 (I'm calling the /etc/xen/scripts/network script from within /etc/init.d/xend to bring up / down the second bridge.) and bootstrapping my domU VMM.

But finally I got stuck just before the goal.

When in my dom0 I can ping successfully any computer on the same subnet and any web server (e. g. www.heise.de) But in my domU I can only ping the internal computers. Pinging a web-server gives me an "destination host unreachable", even though he can transform a DNS-name into the IP-adress, but thats probably because of my own DNS on 192.168.10.2.

That's the result of ping in domU:
rc_manager:~# ping www.heise.de
PING www.heise.de (193.99.144.85) 56(84) bytes of data.
#From 192.168.250.1 icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable
From 192.168.250.1 icmp_seq=2 Destination Host Unreachable
From 192.168.250.1 icmp_seq=3 Destination Host Unreachable
From 192.168.250.1 icmp_seq=5 Destination Host Unreachable
From 192.168.250.1 icmp_seq=6 Destination Host Unreachable
From 192.168.250.1 icmp_seq=7 Destination Host Unreachable

--- www.heise.de ping statistics ---
8 packets transmitted, 0 received, +6 errors, 100% packet loss, time 7027ms
, pipe 3


A few words on the network topology:
192.168.10.1 is gateway to internet
dom0 and domU are DHCP-Clients in 192.168.10.x network

I have two networkcards in my xen-machine:
eth0 is connect to the 192.168.10.x net
eth1 is not used at the moment (domU will be DNS/DHCP/NFS Server for a new subnet 192.168.250.x with fixed domU fixed IP 192.168.10.1 and dom0 fixed IP 192.168.250.2)

Might there be a problem with MACs of domU (look at the end of this mail). Once I read something with first byte of MAC address and multicast modus or something?
Or does domU mix up the two nics? (Don't think so.)

I hope you can give me some advice where to look at.

Regards,
Mario Minati


In the following I paste infomation on the network configuration.
