I found an artcle online and tried following it and created a bridge, but that didn't remedy either:

[ http://www.linuxdevcenter.com/pub/a/linux/2006/01/26/xen.html?page=2 ]

<--------------------------------------Bridge Creation-------------------------------------->
    [root@seleya ~]# brctl show

    [root@seleya ~]# brctl addif xen-br1 vif1.0
    [root@seleya ~]# brctl addif xen-br1 eth0
<------------------------------------End of Bridge Creation------------------------------------>

The machine loses all network connectivity after adding eth0 to the bridge xen-br1.

This sounds identical to my problem when I try to use the NAT networking
model. What network model are you trying to use? Bridge (the default, NAT,
or Route?

I just recently installed Xen3 on a FC5 host and a FC4 guest, and it worked
perfectly until I changed it to the NAT model.

As far as why yours isn't working, we would have to see your xen config file
for the domU.

Subject: [Xen-users] Xen 3.0 on FC4 - guest domains cant ping host domain

I am installed Xen 3.0 on a Fedora Core 4(2.6.12-1.1454_FC4xen0) machine.
This machine is currently running one host domain:

[root@]# xm list

Following is the network configuration for Domain-0:

Following is configuration for the guest domain(fc4-vm1):

          RX bytes:560 (560.0 b)  TX bytes:560 (560.0 b)

When I try to ping the Domain-0(192.168.1.110) from fc4-vm1(192.168.1.121),
I get :

PING 192.168.1.110 (192.168.1.110) 56(84) bytes of data

I tried messing around with the routing table without any success. Any help

is appreciated.
