This is more a question about best practice people are using...
I run Xen mainly to start a myriad of various operating systems in my lab (Linux variants, Solaris, BSDs, Windows...). domUs have usually zvol's allocated to them. I assign the IPv4 addresses via a local DHCP server, all domUs have access to two bridge interfaces (one for IPv4 with NAT, one for IPv6). Currently I add all domU IPv4 addresses to /etc/hosts file, being too lazy to maintain a DNS zone. Is there any way to nicely have name-to-IP name resolution working without doing things like DHCP+dynamic DNS on every machine? How to find out easily the IPv4 addresses assigned to the domUs? I understand that Xen only bridges Ethernet frames and has no clue really what happens above that? Marcin
