you need to configure the network on both host [1] and uml image [2], for instance: [1] iface tap0 inet static address 10.0.1.99 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 10.0.1.0 broadcast 10.0.1.255 up echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward up iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth1 -j MASQUERADE pre-up tunctl -u <your-user> [2] auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 10.0.1.100 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 10.0.1.0 up route add -net 0.0.0.0 dev eth0 up route add -net 0.0.0.0 gw <your-gateway-to-internet> Remember that your user must belong to the uml-net group.
