--- Network trouble
I'm having trouble getting the network to work fine in the QEmu VMs.
Eventually I discovered that if I bridged to eth0 then it's just the communication between the host and the VM that does not work. Communication with other machines on the LAN or with the Internet works. However that's going to be a big problem to send the jobs to the VMs (see previous section, plus the dhcp and dns is also running on the host in my case).
Now, rather than bridge to eth0 what I'd want on my machine is to bridge to tap0, a local network where I have all my VMware VMs.
can you please send me the network details of the host? Normally you don't bridge to eth0 but create a bridge interface and eth0 is a member of that bridge aka eth0 won't have an IP associated with it as the host IP would be on virtbr0.
What I typically see if I ping the host from the VM is that the echo requests go out and the echo replies are sent. But ping on the VM sees nothing. It could be a firewalling issue though my VMware VMs on the same network work fine.
