What is the exact failure mode? Are you using `mirage-net-unix` or `mirage-net-macosx` when the application is compiled? The `unix` library uses tuntap (the old behaviour) and the `macosx` library uses the Yosemite-specific Vmnet kernel module (which doesnt require the installation of an external kmod, and supports bridging traffic). You can force the use of tuntap on MacOS X via "mirage configure -t unix" (otherwise it is defaulted to "mirage configure -t macosx") -anil _______________________________________________ MirageOS-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xenproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mirageos-devel
