Moved conversation to discuss@ instead of bugs@ - haven't seen anything to indicate a bug so far.
Just to check, you aren't actually leaving "<eth0's ip address>" as a literal string, correct? It should be 10.20.30.40 or some real IP. I also notice that you are missing the create bridge command, I assume that was done elsewhere. If you have any other way to access the machine, I would use that to try and see what you have to do to regain connectivity. You should have a bridge with ports (eth0 and br0), an ip on br0, and a single flow (with the NORMAL action). -Reid On Tue, Feb 19, 2013 at 5:01 PM, Jing Ai <ai_jing2...@hotmail.com> wrote: > The script is located on the remote host.
