Hi folks.
I'm trying to install my first Xen domU and I thought I'd go with the
defaults so my domU is configured to use bridged networking thus:
vif = [ 'bridge=xenbr0' ]
Which, when xend runs, results in this:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:02:55:1A:65:D2

But then inside the domU, running Ubuntu Edgy, it's not finding any
network:
There is already a pid file /var/run/dhclient.eth0.pid with pid
134993416

DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 6

So, ideally without wanting to get into bridging details, what am I
doing wrong?
(Yes, it's a steep learning curve. Though so far I'm pretty impressed
with how easy it's been.)
