I have a machine with 12 guests. When I boot
a guest the network works for about 6 seconds
and then it is unreachable.

This is the ping status as seen by another machine
on the network:

The vps052 ethernet is properly enabled and confifured:

The network bridge status doesn't report any problems and shows all
the vifs in place:

For dom0 the kernel is Ubuntu's: 2.6.19-4-server
For the domU the kernel is: 2.6.22-14-xen

Any ideas of what I should be looking for?

Thanks,

Alberto
