On FreeBSD I assign an IP address like 172.20.0.1 to the *bridge* interface on the host on startup so that samba and dhcpd can bind to it. When qemu is started /etc/qemu-ifup makes the new tap device a bridge member. I imagine Linux has something similar.... _______________________________________________ Qemu-devel mailing list Qemu-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel
