Hi Ben, it does help. > There is a "feature" of the bridge that doesn't allow a guest to see it's > host and vice-versa when using TAP/Bridge (BTW, this is documented > on the Qemu_Networking page).
Actually, it's not. I read that page several times before posting and then I read it several times more after reading this. This "feature" certainly [i]should[/i] be documented on the Qemu_Networking page as it's pretty important information. > No, this won't work until OpenSolaris has a true bridge.

I suspect that both this workaround and issue are located elsewhere. I would encourage the Qemu networking page to be updated with what you just told me as I would not have needed to post if it were there! (I really, really hope I didn't miss the text 6 times and am making myself look like an idiot, but I really don't think it's there.) I appreciate the help, John -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
