Hello,

2009/1/27 Tom Hughes <[email protected]>:
Attached is a patch which adds a few enhancements to the network support
in RPCemu. The changes are:

  - Add support for bridged networking - if bridgename is set in the
    config file instead of ipaddress then the interface will be joined
    to the specified bridge. This allows it to be bridged with the
    hosts ethernet interface and avoids the need for iptables rules to
    be used to NAT the traffic.

So with this patch RPCEmu will be able to use an IP address in the
same subnet as the host? Or am I interpreting this totally wrong?

That's exactly right, yes. So it will see broadcast traffic on the LAN which is probably what is preventing ShareFS working.

Basically it is as if there is a virtual network switch (implemented in the host kernel) that both the host and guest are connected to.
