Thread-topic: [Xen-users] network setup for domU
Hi,

I seem to remember having seen this problem of " Error: Device 0 (vif)
could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working."

It had something to do with the base Linux installation missing some
packages (hot plug). As I was not sure which package the hotplug was in,
I ended up installing most packages.

As for the mac addresses being 0 that should not be a problem, I think.
Her eis what I have in my mac and the vif shows

'mac=aa:00:00:00:00:11, bridge=xenbr0'

vif3.0    Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
          inet6 addr: fe80::fcff:ffff:feff:ffff/64 Scope:Link


Hope this helps
- Padma

Hi

  I've got to the point where I have dom0 (I hope I'm using the right 
terminology) setup and running. When I try to setup a domU with "xm 
create ..." I get the following error:
"Error: Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not
working."
I'm trying to figure out where the problem is, but I'm getting lost in 
Xen's network setup scripts, I did notice the following (I don't know if

indicates a problem): The bridge interface mac address is all zeros. The

mac address for all 'veth' interfaces (there are 8) are also all zeros 
and the mac address for all vif interfaces (there are 8 as well) are F.



TIA
Paolo
