Hello, I'm trying the 'Extended Multicast' example from the book and the two UMLs cannot ping each other. I'm afraid I'm missing something but then, I'm doing exactly as per the book.
Host is Fedora Core 6, x86_64 kernel64-2.6.22.12-am1 umid=mc1 ubda=mc1,FedoraCore6-AMD64-root_fs mem=128M uml_mconsole mc1 config eth0=mcast OK uml1# dmesg [...] [42949411.190000] Configured mcast device: 239.192.168.1:1102-1 [42949411.190000] Choosing a random ethernet address for device eth0 [42949411.190000] Netdevice 0 (5e:11:b6:5c:17:b3) : mcast backend multicast address: 239.192.168.1:1102, TTL:1 uml1# ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.1 up eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr D6:8B:68:5F:06:2A inet addr:192.168.1.1 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::d48b:68ff:fe5f:62a/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 The the other UML: host# kernel64-2.6.22.12-am1 umid=mc2 ubda=mc2,FedoraCore6-AMD64-root_fs mem=128M host# uml_mconsole mc2 config eth0=mcast OK uml2# dmesg [...] [42949414.260000] Configured mcast device: 239.192.168.1:1102-1 [42949414.260000] Choosing a random ethernet address for device eth0 [42949414.260000] Netdevice 0 (ba:ca:65:7d:33:36) : mcast backend multicast address: 239.192.168.1:1102, TTL:1 uml2# ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.2 up eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr BA:DE:13:F6:55:73 inet addr:192.168.1.2 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::b8de:13ff:fef6:5573/64 Scope:Link uml2# ping 192.168.1.1 PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data.

From 192.168.1.1 icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable Note than no interface was created on the host. Should there be one ? Host is Fedora Core 6, x86_54 I did not see in the book example that anything else should be made in order for these two UMLs to be pingable between each other. is there something missing ? Am I missing something ? Must the host be configured in a certain way to allow these UML to see each other without any host interface created ? Thanks for any suggestion/comment.
