Replying to myself yet again...

I tried two VMs running linux (CentOS 4.4) and internal network worked
fine. Once an opensolaris VM is unable to talk/ping the Linux ones.



The user manual says "  Linux implementation of internal networking only
allows VMs running under the same user ID to establish an internal network."

Are there any such gotchas or known issues when it comes to opensolaris?

Cheers
Manoj
