Hi,

I have a Xen box set up with a number of VM's on it using bridged
networking. I have been using one NIC on the server, and assigning
public IP's to each of the VM's.

I have recently got a second separate physical machine, and I would like
to use NFS to mount drives from my new machine, in to the VM's on my Xen
machine. I have connected a crossover cable from the Xen machine to the
new machine, and I have set up a local area network between the two
servers. I'm just not sure how to then get my VM's to connect to the new
network. Could someone please point me in the right direction :)

Cheers,

Andrew

If I understand correctly; You've got something like this:

dom0 - eth0 = 192.168.1.1
domA - eth0 = 192.168.1.100
domB - eth0 = 192.168.1.101
domB - eth0 = 192.168.1.102

You want to add another physical machine at something like:

New - eth0 = 192.168.1.10

And then mount it's storage on the VMs?

If that is right, then you should be able to connect dom0's eth0 interface to the new machine's eth0 (via cross-over or a switch) and be off to the races. Is this what is failing?
