Thanks for the followup ... the domUs were initially created using virt-manager
which gave me workable config files for this Xen version. I then tweaked the
files as needed and use xm to manipulate the VMs.
It appears the Xen is emulating a RealTek ethernet adapter, so I downloaded the
latest drivers for the 8139 device and created an iso which you will note as
the current CD. Unfortunately, windows couldn't correlate any of the devices in
the cd image with its view of the adapter. I forced the install and the adapter
didn't come up. I reverted the driver.
Attachments:
infoOutput.txt -- script capture of the xenhost console as I was displaying
the configs, xm list outputs, ifconfig, brctl,
and the current route table.
winxpTest -- config file for the windows guest
dwm3 -- config file for my RHEL5 guest
winxpTestIPCONFIG.gif -- screen capture of ipconfig /all on win guest, also
ping and
tracert output
dwm3PingTracert.gif -- screen capture of ping test on the RH guest to show
that
the basic environment routes to the ping target.
