Initially, when I first migrated a couple of machines over, it was eth0. When I realized it was still exhibiting the same problem, the subsequent system were left on veth and I changed the link to virbr0 with no difference. So, I've tried it both ways with the same result.

Noted. Back on veth till 2.6.33 then. Thx! Regards Mike -- Michael H.
