Hellol!
I wrote 3 days ago from another email but no ones answer, may be it from spam filter (also it could be that no ones wants to) so last try:
please help at least now

My situation:
I have Suse 11.1 64bit dom0 and 4 hvm domu: 2 - windows 2008 with full gplpv drivers (from James Harper) installed (0.9.12-pre13) and 2 - debian lenny 32 bit (if u know how to make normal shutdown for lenny domu via xm shutdown please let me know :) )

network config - network-bridge, vif-bridge

Everything was great with bridging config but I decide to move to network-route/vif-route config and here comes my problem: all lenny domu become unrechable by network, all pings telnets sshs finishs by "Destination unreachable"
ifconfig in dom0 for DomU(lenny) vif shows me it:

debvl Link encap:EthernetHWaddr FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
inet addr:192.168.200.100Bcast:80.255.255.255Mask:255.255.255.255
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICASTMTU:1500Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:795 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:32
RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)

so all packets drops, if I ping from domu (lenny) I have the same Destination unreachable but RX/TX counters for its vif in dom0 stay zero with other domu - windows 2008 with GPLPV drivers everything is ok, I can access from/to them I try to reinstall HVM lenny-domu, install HVM suse11.1, install windows 2008 without gplpv driver - same situation - Destination unreachable, but if I install gplpv driver to new windows domu - network start working.

So whats wrong with other domu without gplpv drivers, why their network doesnot work in vif-route mode without PV drivers and works in vif-bridge mode?

hvm config for all domu is the same, exept vif parametrs and disk modes:

import os, re
arch = os.uname()[4]
if re.search('64', arch):
arch_libdir = 'lib64'
else:
arch_libdir = 'lib'
kernel = '/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader'
builder='hvm'
device_model = '/usr/' + arch_libdir + '/xen/bin/qemu-dm'
name = 'blabla'
memory = 2048
maxmem = 2048
vcpus=2
acpi=1
usb=1
#usbdevice='host:0529:0001' - :) if u know how to transfer alladin dongle to hvm domu please let me know, cose this one doesnot work :)
usbdevice='tablet'
apic=1
shadow_memory=16
vif=['ip=192.168.200.100,mac=00:16:3e:74:47:b6,vifname=Dtbin']
disk = ['phy:/dev/virtpart2/hdd1,hda,w']
boot='c'
sdl=0
vnc=1
vncviewer=1
vncdisplay=2
localtime='yes'
stdvga=0
serial='pty'
#ne2000=0
on_poweroff='destroy'
on_reboot='restart'
on_crash='restart'
on_xend_start='start'
on_xend_stop='shutdown'


PS Sorry for my english :)
