hi, I have two virtual machines, dolphin and anthill, running on a single real machine, whale. I am trying to set them both up to serve websites. dolphin is for my personal stuff and anthill is for a site that I'm doing with some other people - I want to be able to give them root access to the vm but not to whale or dolphin.
The problem I'm having is getting the networking set up right. I can start either of the vms separately, and they start up OK, but when I start them both together, the second one to start can't start its network. I've tried two ways of doing it: - using a single tap device (tap0), with the IP 192.168.2.1, and dolphin on 192.168.2.2, anthill on 192.168.2.3 - using two tap devices (tap0=192.168.2.1 --> dolphin=192.168.2.2, tap1=192.168.2.3 --> anthill=192.168.2.4) Neither of these seem to work. Before I try anything else, it would be good to know if what I'm trying to do is possible in principle, or if there are limitations in the way TUN/TAP works which I need to know about. What I really want is to have a virtual network of VMs all on the same network with a single route (tap device) to the host computer. The reason for this is that whale is also serving as my network firewall, and it's awkward to define rules for multiple interfaces in shorewall. Is this possible?
