[Xen-users] Re: Bug 339 - peth1: received packet with own address as source address

["Cyrus Katrak" <katrakcr@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

After implementing the patch, you must edit the line that says:
macid="F0"
on ONE of the dom0's.
E.G:
on Your first dom0 use: macid="F0"
on your second dom0 use: macid="F1"

You mentioned the possiblity of an unkown dom0 on the network. I
believe you can use any MAC you want, but changing macid="F0" to some
other 2-hex digit ID should provide you with enough options.

Please let me know if this works
