Re: [Xen-users] dom ID 1 not auto starting

["Fred Zinsli" <fred.zinsli@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Another update

Tried adding and setting up the second NIC on the server.
All the xen bridges disappear and the don't seem to want to come back.
Removed the second NIC configuration and the xen bridges come back.

How do I assign an ID to each virtual host?

Regards

Fred
