Crap.
Disabling AppArmor didn't help, still broken. Put external machine's
crontab ping to every minute. We'll see what happens now.
Sorry for the many messages.

Another update.....
Novell's AppArmor WAS enabled on the domU. I disabled it, stopped all
the pinging cron jobs, and have not had a failure since.
Could that have been the problem?
Thanks,

Rainer,
Thank you for your reply.
No, no firewall running on the domU.
No other machine with same IP (although there USED to be, we did some IP
switching when this domU went to production mode several days ago). The
domU's old IP is now the dom0's (and vice versa). We did this so that
outside clients that attached to 123.456.8.2 wouldn't have to change
anything in their /etc/hosts, etc.).
Update on my original email. The pinging from the domU to the outside
didn't actually help. What DOES help is another machine on the same
LOCAL net pinging the domU every 5 minutes. I have not had a failure
since that started.
Are there XEN bridge settings that define how to respond to
"arp-who-has" requests? Certainly sounds like that is the problem.

Sounds like the gateway 123.456.8.254 forgot the mac address of your
domU.
Do you have some weired firewall running on your domU blocking
arp-who-has?
Another machine with the same IP in the same broadcast domain?
Rainer
