Makes sense for the host side to have naming convention tied to the guest. Example as a prefix: guest0-eth0. Would it not be interesting to have the host also manage these interfaces via standard tools like ip or ifconfig etc? i.e if i admin up guest0-eth0, then the user in guest0 will see its eth0 going up. Anyways, interesting discussion. cheers, jamal - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
