Now I changed /etc/network/interfaces to this found on internet:
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth1
iface eth1 inet manual
auto tap0
iface tap0 inet manual
up ifconfig $IFACE 0.0.0.0 up
down ifconfig $IFACE down
tunctl_user ad
auto br0
iface br0 inet static
address 192.168.1.103
network 192.168.1.0
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
bridge_ports eth1 tap0
bridge_maxwait 0
But now after reboot neither host(Debian Etch) nor guest os(Winxp) can connect
to
internet. output of route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 br0
Am i missing something? Also i have setup winxp to obtain ip address
automatically.
if that helps.
