I set the MAC and my DHCP server assigns the right IP so that I can use servers in a VM, and all works. The problem seems to be that if you use "-net nic" (from an old script, perhaps) it doesn't get a DHCP response. The bug report is old, I did verify that previous qemu-kvm did work with "-net nic" on the command line, but that seems changed. Other than having to decide if a VM was to be a client using host IP or server using the tap, it all seems to work. -- Bill Davidsen <davidsen@xxxxxxx> "We have more to fear from the bungling of the incompetent than from the machinations of the wicked." - from Slashdot -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
