Hi, I'm new to Xen and I'm having problem with Xen networking. I read that one could set the IP address of a new virtual machine in the configuration file with the vif statement. For example: vif = [ 'mac=00:00:00:00:00:01, bridge=virbr0' ] ip = "10.10.10.1"
My problem is that when the virtual machine start it doesn't get the IP. Insted it uses dhcp to get one. I found that the xen kernel must be compiled with the CONFIG_IP_PNP option set, but my kernel doesn't seem to have it. Infact: grep CONFIG_IP_PNP /boot/config-2.6.21.7-3.fc8xen gives me: # CONFIG_IP_PNP is not set
Is this one the only problem? Is there a way to get a fedora precompiled kernel with this option set? Thanks Regards Matteo
