Nico,

Wouldn't vif name assigned by xeb based on the Domain id? (ie if the  

DomU is 5 then it will become vif5.0)

Its logical to assign vifnames that correspond to the domname + device

as seen within the dom-u.

If my dom-u was named foo, and the device was to become eth0 in foo, I

would name the vif foo.0 , eth1 in foo would be foo.1 , eth2 would be

foo.2 (for a max of three vif's per guest).

This lets me do all of my bandwidth accounting just

reading /proc/net/dev directly with grawk

( http://echoreply.us/2007/04/25/grawk-100-released/ ) rather easily.

I try to avoid snmp or anything else that malloc()s way more than it

needs on dom-0 for obvious reasons :)

Alos,

I've misspoke when I said that I was setting the static IP for the  

guest's vif from the Dom0 - I was doing that inside the actual DomU.

Also, I have a win 2003 server guest on the same xen host and  

networking works just fine on that one.

Both configs are found in my initial post.

Let me know what you think and THANK YOU FOR TRYING TO HELP ME!

Are the guests using the same subnet (netmask) as the the bridge serving

them? In other words, the IP address of your guest not working ends in a

number equal or lesser than the broadcast address of the bridge?

Best,
