So let's say the user requests x.x.x.3 for the IP - that would conflict with the DNS server address. I would really hate to have those specific checks hardcoded though (in case qemu changed the addresses for some reason. Maybe if we're lucky, qemu itself will error out if there is a conflict. If that's the case, then we can just leave it to them to report the error (as long as we're able to adequately scrape the error message so we can report something sensible). -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
