Choosing A Webhost:

Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

2.6.15-1.2054_FC5xen0 - no network for guest domains: msg#00057

Subject: 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5xen0 - no network for guest domains
Hi!

I'm using xenguest-install.py to install a guest domain on x86_64.

The anaconda installer start up fine, but when I configure the network for the guest domain (be it DHCP or static IP), after trying to contact installation FTP server, I discover that the guest domain has no network connectivity at all - it cannot resolve the FTP server's hostname, or connect to it directly by its IP address; I cannot ping from other hosts or from dom0 to the guest domain.

The physical network controller is a Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5704 Gigabit Ethernet using the tg3 driver.

The virtual network devices are created by Xen on domain 0:

I suspect that this may have something to do with x86_64 architecture and the tg3 driver. Any ideas?
