I built qemu 2.12.0 on a Sun/Oracle M3000 SPARC64 running Solaris 10U11. I was able to start up a Window XP guest but not matter what I try, I can't get XP to talk to the Internet in user mode networking. Telnet reports "connect failed" to any IP and IE is unable to connect to anything either by name or by IP. XP's Control Panel shows the emulated Ethernet card as present and TCP is set up. The guest's LAN status reports 262 packets sent and 4 received at the moment.

I'm starting it with:

./qemu-system-x86_64 -m 2047 -boot d -usb -device usb-tablet -smp 3 -netdev user,id=n0,net=192.168.0.0/24 -device rtl8139,netdev=n0 -hda /bkpool/qemuimages/XP.img -cdrom /bkpool/qemuimages/xp.iso &

My host has a static IP at 192.168.0.20 and I set the guest's IP to 192.168.0.21 inside XP. A LAN scan shows the Sun's IP present but not the qemu guest. I've read all the documentation several times but still don't get it. What am I doing wrong?
