I'm sorry, the only hint I could give you is to update to 3.1
I'm having a less problems with 3.1 than I'm having with 3.0.x
On a Dell Poweredge 1950 I simply installed etch and xen 3.1. The only thing
I had to do was to install Broadcom nic driver.
No problems occurred whatsoever.
Try 3.1!

Betreff: [Xen-users] Xen networking problem - OK on 3.0.2, broken on 3.0.4
I just confirmed that my methods work with Xen 3.0.2, and I'm not exactly
sure why the same methods wouldn't work with Xen 3.0.4, which is the
version I need to be looking at.
By "working", I mean that the "RUNNING" flag appears on the guest domain's
vif when I run ifconfig and that the private networking between the host
and the guests works.
I'll be investigating more into this issue; meanwhile, any input would be
appreciated.
Thx,
Jun
