Haven't tried it, but unless you're running very recent network drivers (later than SLES8 SP2) and attaching the guests directly to the OSA or a VSWITCH, I doubt it'll work. A lot of those tools rely on ARP actually functioning all the way to the guest, and until the layer 2 code was introduced, OSAs and guest LANs didn't actually allow ARP to work (by design -- the ARP function is offloaded into the OSA and not directly accessible to the guest). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
