Hi, using fc8-test2 updated with all packages available I could successfully install a windows xp machine, but I can't even ping it (although windows can ping my fedora and internet overall). The ip assigned to windows is in the range 192.168.122.x (assigned to a virtual nic) while the ip assigned to fedora is 192.168.2.102. route -n shows everything correctly set up (192.168.122.0/24 going through the virtual interface (virbr0 IIRC)), but still I can't ping the virtual machine, even if I run $ /etc/init.d/iptables stop What did I do wrong? BTW, since it's well known that in the virtual machine the usb mouse must be replace with a usb tablet to make the pointer work correctly, I guess that this option should be set by default rather than making users swear for hours :) Thanks, Nico -- Fedora-xen mailing list Fedora-xen@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-xen
