Hi Jez


Something wierd going on, I don't get the bridge device brought up (I
presume this should be done with service network start).

So after service network start I get this :

No ip address on eth0 and no xbr0 device.

?


[root@xen-srv2 network-scripts]# brctl show
bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
[root@xen-srv2 network-scripts]#



So am I doing something wrong ? I'd expect to see a bridge device with an
IP address ?
