Re: [Xen-devel] ARP problems in -testing?

Well, I can confirm this was the culprit of my problems: Xen was
selecting random MAC addresses at startup. I have fixed the problem by
manually and statically setting a predefined MAC address in the domain
config file:
vif = [ 'mac=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX' ]
Now, the MAC address is always the same and thus I don't need the ugly
ping hack.
Thanks.
I've fixed the netfront driver to send an unsolicited ARP reply
whenever an IP address gets brought up on it. This fix is in the
-testing and -unstable trees, and will end up in the forthcoming 2.0.4
stable release.
Perhaps someone could build the repository, return to using random MAC
addresses, and confirm that the problem has gone away?
I will be away for 8 hours, but will test those changes ASAP...
Thanks!
