The culprit in my case turned out to be the automatic create/destroy tap functionality with "-net tap". If I instead did "-net tap,ifname=SomeTapName,script=no,downscript=no" then it all worked flawlessly. Of course this solution requires that you know exactly how many taps you need for a given host, so you can create them upfront, but in my case that was not a problem. :o) Thomas Løcke -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
