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?

Thanks in advance
