Hi! I set up a EFW 2.1.2 the way it is described by Bill Pye (EFW in XEN on CentOS5) using the network-fw script by Neobiker.
The original setup was for 3 interfaces all of which were bridged to three physical interfaces in the machine. This works fine. I then decided that I wanted a fourth interface on the firewall and added a dummy-network-device. Now my problem is: all 4 bridges (eth0-2 and dummy0) get created, but when the EFW-domU is booted with "xm create -c efw" it hangs at this message (I'll append the complete boot message at the end, but here I show only the last few lines): Creating root device Mounting root filesystem kjournald starting. Commit interval 5 seconds EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Switching to new root INIT: version 2.85 booting Mounting /proc filesystem Now, I don't think that the dummy device is the problem, because I can boot the EFW with any combination of three bridged devices (But not with 4) Could anybody enligthen me what might be the problem: - Does EFW-2.1.2-Community only allow 3 network devices? - Is the problem that I did the original configuration with only 3 devices? - Did I miss something configuring Xen? Thanks Bernhard PS: The full boot message: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# xm create -c efw Using config file "/etc/xen/efw".
