Re: [Xen-devel] [patch, rfc] put IP addresses into xenstore

 How do you do that?  Assuming there is a dhcp server handing out IP 
addresses (pretty common these days I think).  Is there some way to ask 
the dhcp server whenever there is a valid lease for a given mac address? 
 Other suggestions to figure the IP address for a given domain?
 Unfortunately it's also slightly outside 
teh current scope of the dom0 tool stack.
 
 But unfortunaly there also seems to be no other standard way, thats why 
I've tried to simply place the addresses in xenstore ...
cheers,
