Hm, you are right, i have not given any domains any other privileges then
the default setup. Can you give me a hint where i can configure that?

For the PCI-Device: I do not have a PCI device.

I want a whole virtual, direct connection between two Domain-Us. That worked
at least in 3.0.2 for me, without setting any permissions.
