What does ip link show and ip -4 addr show say? Note that in configurations where I use bridging, I don't have a 'iface eth0 inet manual' line; since 'bridge_ports eth0' is set, this will automatically activate 'eth0' as part of the bridge. But OTOH, I don't see the harm that line can do... > If I bring up br0 (ifconfig > br0 up), it comes up with 192.168.122.1 whether I do it with eth0 up or > down. This IP seems oddly familiar... Did you recently install libvirt? Because that's the default IP for libvirt's default internal bridged network (virbr0). Normally, that shouldn't interfere with the standard bridge (different interface name), but maybe in your case, perhaps because you edited your configuration? (XML configuration under /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/, especially look for symlinks in /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/autostart/. Note that if you manually edit your libvirt configuration without virt-manager or virsh, you first have to stop it, edit the configuration and then start it again, else it will not work and be overwritten.) > Bringing up br0 with the 192.168.1.14 address leaves me with a machine > that can't connect or be connected to. Is bridge-utils still installed? What does 'brctl show' say? - Christian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
