Hovis, There is no *official* -net tap option, but there is a patch for it. However, if you are choosing to go the OpenVPN route, there is no need to use the -net tap option at all. What you need to do is install your guest OS, then install the OpenVPN client onto your guest and connect it to your host. Once that is completed, your network will work properly. You made the correct choice to use bridging in order to get your networking set up. - -Joseph -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFD1N/0mXZROF+EADURAj1TAJ9P2O1jnuw/PYwNNc6jRZ9wuVqzGwCggTL+ S15HFlJftrfyjH5UKXqC65I= =qbNF -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Qemu-devel mailing list Qemu-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel
