[coLinux-users] Pcap tx failed

[C. R. O. <cr...@nc...>]

Greetings,

I'm attempting to setup coLinux (0.6.1) with bridged networking.  I get
an IP address fine, and I can ping sites inside my local net as well as
on the general Internet, but after a little bit of network traffic in
the console I start to see a messages to the effect of 'packet: tx pcap
FAILED'.

This is Windows XP Pro.

I made sure that 802.1x authentication is turned off for all my
adapters.

I want bridging because I need to expose several services in the coLinux
instance to the Internet. =20

I have no software firewall installed.  I do have SonicWall's VPN client
installed (version 8), but it makes no difference if the client is
enabled or disabled.

I haven't tried using native network bridge support in windows XP as
discussed at the bottom of
http://www.colinux.org/wiki/index.php/coLinuxNetworking.  Does this work
for anyone?  And if I use it, do I specify it in the config.xml file
like a TAP or a bridge?

<network index=3D"0" name=3D"NDIS 5.0 driver" =
type=3D"bridged"></network>

Or

<network index=3D"0" name=3D"whatever" type=3D"TAP"></network>
