1) Ensure the VM install has a unique MACPREFIX in SYSTEM CONFIG. 2) Ensure that each NICDEF or DEF NIC command specifies a unique value for MAC interface address. 3) Use DHCP to distribute networking information for guests. Configure entries in DHCP server to match for specific MAC addresses. 4) (optional) use DDNS to register the DHCP-assigned addresses. You'd probably need to separate the guests into a separate DNS zone to control the registration behavior, but that's not a bad idea anyway. Transparent for production or DR, and trivially implementable if DR turns real. -- db ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
