Hello, I'm running Ubuntu server 9.10, installed KVM etc.

Created the bridge network following instructions on help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM/Networking

Created a windows 2008 guest using virt-install command line (using virt-manager GUI from a remote Ubuntu desktop would not let me select the ISO location).

I can however use a remote virt-manager to connect to the guest and complete the windows install.

Within windows 2008 I changed the IP address but cannot ping from outside world. The bridge network appears fine - I'm not sure what else to look at!

Here is the interfaces file:

The loopback network interface

auto lo iface lo inet loopback

The primary network interface

auto eth0 iface eth0 inet manual # auto br0 iface br0 inet static address 60.234.64.50 netmask 255.255.255.248

network 60.234.0.0

    broadcast 60.234.0.255
    gateway 60.234.64.49
    bridge_ports eth0
    bridge_stp off
    bridge_fd 0
    bridge_maxwait 0

auto eth1 iface eth1 inet static address 192.168.12.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.12.255

The ip of the windows server is 60.234.64.52

What else should I check?

Regards Paul.
