Re: [Xen-users] How to assign fixed ip-addres to vifN.0?
Solved this problem myself. It was my fault, sorry.
I gave up on trying to prevent dhcp from starting.
I thought that dom0 (when starting domU), first had to bring up vif1.0
I tried for days to make that happen but it didn't. I was desperate.
And as it turns out, dom0 does not have to bring up vif1.0
Dom0 ONLY needs to connect vif1.0 to the bridge (which it always did)
and let domU start his network the way it wants and everything is OK.
So, no need for links in /etc/init.d from net.lo to net.vif1.0 thru
net.vif7.0 ...
Pfffffffffff,
Hans.
