Re: [Xen-users] more xen network problems

Hello again,  I put in pci network cards:

National Semiconductor Corporation DP83820

Ok i have made progress, the problem listed below does go away, when using a old 3com pci card. So it looks like the ns83820 module has issues with Linux bridging. Is there a Wiki page for working networking? And hardware? The system works fine now (Dell PowerEdge 440SC) Just the internal networking is broken with xen, so you will need to add your own working networking.

Other than that Is there a way to tell xend when it starts and creates a bridge to use eth1 and not eth0 to create the bridge? eth0 (the ns83820) will be used as a crossover between teh two boxes for drbd. It works just fine if you dont create a bridge on that device.

They get addresses and make a /dev/eth0 allowing network access. I had no luck making the bcm57xx work.

I now have a new problem, When I turned on xend networking no- longer works, the output from the 'route' command is very slow to appear. and i see the following in the logs, The system this is replacing is a old xen-2.07 box so im not familiar with peth.

Its filling up my logs and filling up dmesg. I found some mentions of this when i googled the archives but no solutions. Anyone have any ideas?
