Hi guys
I am trying to setup a network bridge to use in Xen, I have done yum install bridge-utils
I am using this guide here :http://www.howtoforge.com/virtualization-with-xen-on-centos-6.2-x86_64-paravirtualization-and-hardware-virtualization
Everything is fine when setting up the bridge when i add "BRIDGE=br0" into my network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file and when I do /ect/init.d/network restart I get an unknown connection error from eth0.
I have created my br0 file exactly like in the guide
I am using DCHP
Does anybody know why this could be?
Thanks

Be very interesting to know what you changed to make it work.

Trevor - Have only just noticed your reply. My Eth0 and Br0 files are below for any future refrence
To get it work I had to use a static IP address instead off DHCP
br0 (you can have up to 2 DNS settings)
DEVICE=br0
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Bridge
BOOTPROTO=none
DELAY=0
IPADDR=***.***.***.***
PREFIX=24
GATEWAY=***.***.***.***
DNS1=***.***.***.***
IPV6INIT=no
eth0
DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=yes
HWADDR=**:**:**.....
TYPE=Ethernet
IPV6INIT=no
BRIDGE=br0
