Hi people I will try to explain my situation. I have a linux machine with a physical interface and 2 public internet ips.
I have installed a uml machine (2.6.12-rc4 works great) and i want to assign one of the public ips to the daemons in the uml machine while the host machine (vanilla 2.6.11.10) uses the other ip I have followed the steps for bridging in http://edeca.net/articles/bridging/questions.html and I have setup a bridge, 1. ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 promisc up 2. brctl addbr uml-bridge 3. brctl setfd uml-bridge 0 4. brctl sethello uml-bridge 0 5. brctl stp uml-bridge off 6. ifconfig uml-bridge my.public.ip netmask 255.255.255.0 up 7. brctl addif uml-bridge eth0 The bridge it's up, but I lose all the conectivity in the machine even a single ping doesnt respond. I think it must be something related to my host provider or somethin related with the bridge-utils program (debian sarge) So my questions are: It's the right way what i'm doing? Is there some identified problem with bridging? Is there another way to do the networking?
