Re: [Xen-users] Providing dhcp for a "private" bridge?
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Let me guess, you're using Fedora/RedHat.
Their dhcpd is compiled without support for dummy interfaces. I started
out by rebuilding the RPM with dummy interface support, but stopped
after I got tired of chasing fedora's dhcpd updates.
I then turned to henning's idea of a dhcp vm, using a minimal image that
takes only 16M RAM and about twice the disk space.
