Ilya, I was trying to access the virtual router, and that worked, thank you!
Well.... i'm still back to square one I guess, the virtual router logs aren't really telling me why my guest VMs are not resolving hostnames on the network. Any suggestions on where to look in the virtual router VM to find out? ________________________________________ From: Musayev, Ilya [imusa...@webmd.net] Sent: Tuesday, March 05, 2013 4:37 PM To: cloudstack-users@incubator.apache.org; aemne...@gmail.com Subject: RE: DNS settings Wei, Are you trying to access SSVM? When SSVM powers up, it runs bunch of scripts, one of them injects the public ssh key pair. To access your ssh VM, your login with ssh -i /var/lib/cloud/management/.ssh/id_rsa -p 3922 <ip_of_ssvm> If you have multiple IPs assigned, try each one.
