My response is definitely off topic but with qemu don't you need a fixed mac address for the *guest* OS if you want your to assign an IP address via DHCP? For that you use -net nic,MACADDR so that the guest will use MACADDR. tap0 mac address doesn't matter. Or may be I misunderstand you.... _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
