Hi,

I'm afraid vnet is too untested to successfully build or use.
I think most people are unaware of it, too.

Maybe someone could pick this up, fix the install/Makefile error you
hit and actually _document_ vnet. Then it should be possible to talk
the distros into including it.

Messing around with bridges while Xen has a better utility is SO
tedious, especially if one is looking at consolidating whole networks
into Xen, let aside the security advantages.

Hi, all

When I tried to build vnet module in FC6 xen,  I got stuck in it. I
downloaded xen sourcecode 3.0.4 and went to xen tree  tools/vnet sub
directory and try to compile it. First it said missing the files config.h
and autoconf.h, so I copied them from linux xen kernel source code to the
vnet-module/linux directory
 linux-2.6.16.33-xen]# cp include/linux/autoconf.h ../tools/vnet/vnet-module
/linux/
And I have no problem in 'make' now but I continued to get stuck in 'make
install'. the error information was as below:
make -C vnetd install
make[1]: Entering directory `/root/Desktop/xen-3.0.4_1-src/tools/vnet/vnetd'
mkdir -p /usr/sbin
vnetd /usr/sbin
make[1]: vnetd: Command not found
make[1]: *** [install] Error 127
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/Desktop/xen-3.0.4_1-src/tools/vnet/vnetd'
make: *** [vnetd-install] Error 2

I wonder what "vnetd /usr/sbin" wants to do. And I've searched on the forum
but I didn't see anyone ever get this problem. And also few information is
released on vnet.

My machine is IBM ThinkCenter Pentiumn 4 HT. I use FC6.

Do anyone have any idea of what's wrong with it? Thanks in advance.

It would appear to be a really small bug, have you tried simply
copying vnetd to /usr/sbin?
maybe it works :)
