Hi! I am trying to run tap networking with libvirtd.
My test system is Fedora18/ppc64, libvirt 1.0.4 (compiled from git and installed). On another system with Fedora17/ppc64 with the same settings, dnsmasq is running. All configs in /etc/libvirt/ are default and not changed, the only exception is /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/default.xml which I copied from Fedora17/ppc64 setup.
What does exactly force libvirtd to start dnsmasq? Some debug info: [root@vpl2 ~]# ps ax | egrep \(dnsmasq\|libvirt\) 9021 ? Ssl 0:00 /usr/sbin/libvirtd 9271 pts/0 S+ 0:00 egrep --color=auto (dnsmasq|libvirt) [root@vpl2 ~]# [root@vpl2 ~]# cat /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/default.xml <network> <name>default</name> <bridge name="virbr%d" /> <forward/> <ip address="192.168.122.1" netmask="255.255.255.0"> <dhcp> <range start="192.168.122.2" end="192.168.122.254" /> </dhcp> </ip> </network> [root@vpl2 ~]# [root@vpl2 ~]# service libvirtd restart Redirecting to /bin/systemctl restart libvirtd.service [root@vpl2 ~]# [root@vpl2 ~]# [root@vpl2 ~]# ps ax | egrep \(dnsmasq\|libvirt\) 9365 ?
