Running the VM on a NAT is a problem if you want to bring together the master VM with a client VM running on some other machine. It will only be able to talk to VMs running on the same machine (actually it shouldn't even do that, but as far as I know it does). Bridged network is easier to handle. > > Anyway, what I did was unpack the oscar tarballs, rebuilt the > pfilter-....3oscar rpm, moved that to the common repository and ran > install_cluster. I see in the log: Calling gencache for /tftpboot/distro/fedora-4-i386, this might take a minute ... success CHECKSUM: /opt/oscar/tmp/pool_oscar_common-rpms.md5 new:21003b33cdee1a5e659ee31f88682f8d internal:f801b2b07c9c327b8781c97c629ff8e3 Calling gencache for /tftpboot/oscar/common-rpms, this might take a minute ... success CHECKSUM: /opt/oscar/tmp/pool_oscar_fc-4-i386.md5 new:149610597462fd20c8c7d585f4dafa2c internal:0fa522aed397f9c10b341b7a199d64e5 Calling gencache for /tftpboot/oscar/fc-4-i386, this might take a minute ... success Does this mean you did not run into the issue with not being able to find the new pfilter rpm in the repository? For me it looks like it did recognize that the checksum was wrong and regenerated the cache correctly, as expected. I also see: DBD::mysql::st execute failed: MySQL server has gone away at /opt/oscar/lib/OSCAR/oda.pm line 798. tcpdump: no process killed --> Step 6: Stopped listening to network What's going on there? Some pfilter related issue, too? there were some issues with mysqld, but I don't remember the details. Maybe DongInn does?
