Re: [Xen-users] Seeing the IP addresses of domUs from dom0

strange ... here is what I can see on my Notebook:

[root@tivoli VM]# arp -n
Address                  HWtype  HWaddress           Flags Mask
Iface
172.20.0.2               ether   00:16:3E:6F:97:1B   C
xenbr0




There is only one VM on it (172.20.0.2) and I can't see
the interfaces of dom0, because this system is connected
to the internet with a PCMCIA UMTS card (ppp) and the 
onboard network interface is not activated.

The ppp interface has no MAC address ... so this is OK

I use NAT on it and I don't have access to the server in my 
company at the moment ... maybe I was wrong ... I will have
a look at it tomorrow.


My "xm list --long" is in the attached file. It was to long to 
add it to the mail.


I have also added the kernel configuration files of dom0 and 
domU.
