Re: [Xen-users] New to xen, difficulty getting network going

Hello,
I am future-proofing myself and learning the ways of Xen. I spent
roughly a working day reading documentation and setting up a test
system and got as far as being able to boot Mandriva 2006 as domU with
Debian Etch as Dom0.
However, networking is still a little difficult. I can't get the
network in domU to work. I ploughed through XenNetworking on the
xensource wiki, which states that Xen should automatically connect
vifN.X to ethX in domN. I use:
vif=['mac=']
in my config file. The error I get when I do "xm create -c
mandriva2006" is:
Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Backend device not found.
My dom0 has the normal lo and eth0 interfaces...
I used to get this .. from memory there are some networking scripts
under /etc and one of those had to be started/restarted. You might then
run into further problems with Etch, someone recently posted a 4 step
plan to working with Etch, but using Xen from unstable. So long as you
remember the final step of copying kernel modules to the DomU it works
very well!
