Damn. This is fixed in Linus' tree, but I've reproduced it here for 2.6.24. It's non-trivial to repair, unfortunately (2.6.25 has a complete reset infrastructure for this). It will occur whenever the network device is reopened, after packets were sent (or received). The workaround is to disable the dhcp in the init scripts... Thanks for the report, Rusty. _______________________________________________ Lguest mailing list [email protected] https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/lguest
