[Fedora-xen] Multihomed networking

Is anyone using FC5 Xen with an FC5 guest, where the Dom0 has two ethernet devices (succesfully)?

My system has eth0 as a 192.168.2.x network, eth1 as my static Internet address, and iptables NAT between them. All real machines on my home network can get out just fine.

My guest VM, also a 192.168.2.x address, is able to reach other machines on my internal network without problem, but trying to access the internet doesn't work. At first I thought it was an iptables configuration issue on the Dom0 machine, but I don't think so anymore. As a test, I inserted at the top of every table a rule to emit a log message when any machine on my net tried to access a specific remote host; performing a wget command in the guest VM shows my outbound SYN, shows an incoming SYN+ACK from the remote host (so outbound masquarading must be working?) and an outbound ACK (so incoming demasquarading must be working?)... I never receive another packet from the remote host (until quite a while later, when I receive FIN). If I try the same exercise with a real host on my network, I get a normal data stream in/out.

Also, traceroute from the guest VM doesn't work exactly as I would expect. I would expect the results of one to be quite similar to those from my Dom0 machine, but consistantly I am missing responses along the path. For example:

This is pretty repeatable.

Any thoughts?


Here are my Dom0 configurations:
