       Actually, this all looks like it should work.  In fact, it looks like 
all traffic would be allowed in both of these iptables configurations based 
solely on the fact that the policy on each chain is ACCEPT and there is no rule 
at the end of any chain to reject or drop all traffic (nor any rule elsewhere 
to reject or drop specific traffic).  Perhaps something else is running on the 
DomU and rejecting traffic, as this access denied message certainly makes it 
look like you have a layer 3 path to this VM (where a timeout would indicate 
you didn't).  To verify where the problem lies, I would try to ssh from Dom0 to 
DomU. I suspect you will get the same access denied error, which would most 
likely mean that the DomU is rejecting the traffic for some reason.  Otherwise, 
perhaps the IP you assigned the DomU is being used elsewhere or something else 
on the Dom0 is rejecting the traffic.

This is how my DOM0 - IP table look like -

So as can be seen dom0 as forwarding table entry here. Am i doing something 
wrong in forwarding ?

Thanks

       Your VM probably has its own firewall/iptables configuration…  This 
would need reconfigured along with the one on Dom0.  If you don't have 
firewall/iptables on your DomU, then perhaps your rules in the iptables 
Forwarding table on Dom0 are wrong.  Traffic going to a DomU will go through 
the Forwarding table instead of the Incoming table where traffic for Dom0 goes, 
I believe this would be true for both bridging and routing.

Subject: [Xen-users] Prob Connecting VM through http or ssh
Hi ,

I am a newbie to Xen. I created a VM and associated an IP address.

Next, i disabled firewall and on ip tables allowed port 80, 22 and 8080 (for my 
tomcat installation) .

I started httpd on VM (domU) and dom0.

After that I tried connecting to dom0 httpd (webserver) port 80 from another 
physical server. This works and shows me the correct page when i do - 
http://<dom0-machine-ip>:80/. Then i try ssh to dom0 machine it works.

But when i try to do the same for VM (domU) on dom0 on browser as  - 
http://<domU-VM-ip>:80/ it does not work. Also when i try ssh to domU machine 
ip it says - Access Denied.

Please help me resolve this. What it is that i am missing here ?

Thanks
Mahendra
