My profuse apologies if you've already read this-it is a repost. I
accidentally replied to a different thread, and I fear it was buried as
a reply to that thread and may not get read by anyone but those who were
paying attention to that one. My problem is unrelated to that one, other
than that both involve xen's networking, and I happened to be reading
that one when I decided to write my own plea for help.
Hi, I've been bashing my head over Xen networking for about a week now,
and I'd love to get some help from the list. I've read the Wiki, the
manual, the mailing list archives, and Googled my fingers to the bone.
I'll try to describe my problem as best as I can; if I've left anything
relevant out, please let me know what you need. In a nutshell:
-The server is at a colo facility, and I have no physical access to it,
just ssh.
-I have the IP addresses A.B.94.226 through 94.230. The gateway is at
94.225.
-Dom0 is configured with A.B.94.226. I've only set up a single DomU,
with A.B.94.227. I'm using Xen's bridging scripts.
-Dom0 can ping DomU. DomU can ping Dom0. Dom0 can reach the internet and
be reached by it, but DomU cannot.
DomU's /etc/network/interfaces:
root@domU:~# cat /etc/network/interfaces
# Used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8). See the interfaces(5) manpage or
# /usr/share/doc/ifupdown/examples for more information.
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
# Uncomment this and configure after the system has booted for the first
time
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address A.B.94.227
netmask 255.255.255.248
gateway A.B.94.225
DomU config file:
root@dom0:~# cat /etc/xen/domU
# -*- mode: python; -*-
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16.29-xen"
ramdisk = "/boot/initrd.img-2.6.16-29-xen"
memory = 128
name = "domU"
vif = ['bridge=xenbr0,ip=A.B.94.227']
disk =
['phy:/dev/xenvolume/domU,sda1,w','phy:/dev/xenvolume/domU-swap,sda2,w']
netmask = "255.255.255.248"

I tried a tcpdump on dom0 while pinging an outside-the-network host from
domU, here's what I get:
domU:

As you can see, when domU is trying to ping 4.2.2.1, it's sending ARP
who-has requests that apparently never get answered. When domU is trying
to ping dom0, it just pings it with no problems. So where should I start
looking for a misconfiguration? How can I troubleshoot this?
