(It's impossible to create network interfaces.) I'm not entirely clear what you're trying to do here, but I'm still using http://www.linux-kvm.com/content/using-bridged-networking-virt-manager as my basic set of instructions for setting up a bridged config for KVM. If you just want your VMs to have internet access you don't need to do anything special at all - you only need to fiddle with networking configuration if you want them bridged rather than NAT'ed (so they appear on your local network as if they were 'real' machines connected to the router). -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
