What host and UML combination are you using?  There are problems with
certain versions.

I blacklisted that address a while back for sending me bounce messages.

As Christopher said, you'll need to 'make mrproper' first before
retrying.  Save your .config file before doing so.

If you don't understand this and can bare the few minutes, remove the
whole kernel tree and extract it again.

host-skas3-2.4.25.patch from
http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/dl-sf.html should apply to
2.4.28.  The SKAS patch is for the host kernel, not the UML kernel.

What sort of connection do you have?  You should be able to use
netfilter (iptables) to MASQUERADE traffic which would make it all
appear to come from one IP and MAC address.  All you need to do is set
the default gateway to a particular host on your own LAN and configure
iptables correctly on it.

Or the original poster might like to see
http://edeca.net/articles/bridging, which explains how to use bridging
with UML.

My apologies for threading incorrectly, I no longer have the original post.

Perhaps a quick read of the bridging HOWTO at
http://edeca.net/articles/bridging/ would help you.  There is no need to
actually use bridging but you can see how to configure the kernel and
bring up TAPs.

Try:

It might not be perfect for your situation but should answer a few
questions.

Please try and see if http://edeca.net/articles/bridging/ helps you at
all.  You can do this with public or private interfaces on your machine,
 including bridging only the TUN devices to eachother.

Copy the patch to your kernel source directory and run something similar
to the below:

# bzcat patch.diff.bz2 | patch -p0

Note that the patch level might be different, if in doubt try -p1, -p2,
etc.  You'll soon know if it was wrong as it will tell you that all of
the hunks failed.

These look good, but obviously you haven't added the UML TAP yet.

I am assuming here that you mean on the host machine.

How does eth0 normally get the IP from your hosting provider?  Does it
obtain it through DHCP?  Or are you allowed to set it manually?  To test
this, run something like

# ifconfig eth0 my.public.ip up

If you normally obtain the IP via DHCP, or your upstream provider locks
you by MAC address, you may have to set the MAC address on the bridge.

If you're interested in bridging, maybe you'd be interested in the HOWTO.

http://edeca.net/articles/bridging

Recompiling the kernel isn't difficult, give it a go!

Hope that helps you,

[uml-user] Bridging HOWTO

2006-01-01 Thread David Cannings
Hello,

It's time to update the bridging HOWTO again, but I need a little help.  I 
would like to expand it so that there is information about setting up bridges 
in different distributions, using the standard init scripts.

I know that Gentoo has init scripts that support it, but I don't use any other 
distributions to be able to investigate.

If any of you use your distributions init scripts to create a bridge for use 
with UML, please could you drop me an email and let me know how you did it.  
I'd need to know which files need to be edited and a brief description of how 
you'd accomplish http://edeca.net/articles/bridging/create-bridge.html 
without a custom script.  Sample files would be great also.

Anybody who contributes something which I end up using will, of course, be 
credited at the end of the document.

Cheers,

David

Thanks to all who have already responded.  However, all of the replies have 
been Debian specific.  Does anyone have any idea for other distributions?

I'll work on the HOWTO when I get some free time in the next few weeks.

You could use bridging and simply connect your wlan0 device to the bridge.

Check the HOWTO, substitute wlan0 for eth0 if applicable:
