iain,

what i remembered, on 4.2 unstable the bridge network didn't work anymore
like it used to work like that

- vif             = [ 'bridge=eth0,mac=00:16:3e:1a:b3:4b' ]

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address         10.41.10.42
        netmask         255.255.255.0
        network         10.41.10.0
        broadcast       10.41.10.255
        gateway         10.41.10.1


i had to define an extra bridge network in my squeeze network interface
configuration file

vif             = [ 'bridge=br0,mac=00:16:3e:1a:b3:4b' ]

auto br0
iface br0 inet static
        address         10.41.10.42
        netmask         255.255.255.0
        network         10.41.10.0
        broadcast       10.41.10.255
        gateway         10.41.10.1
        bridge_ports    eth0
        bridge_stp      on
        bridge_maxwait  0


thanks walter

Fair enough. Cheers anyway mate.

The server in question has been launched into production for the past 36
days so can't really mess around too much with it.

I'm going to setup identical setup locally and debug it until I can get it
working.

Maybe missed some kernel modules that IPv6 wants, maybe need to re-configure
eth0 or xenbr0 settings, so many other possibilities.

Iain
