[coLinux-devel] slirp and TAP together?

[David K. <da...@gi...>]

Is it not possible to use slirp on eth0 and a bridged TAP connection on 
eth1 simultaneously?

Whenever I try to configure this in my colinux.default.xml:

    <network index="0" type="slirp" />
    <network index="1" type="tap" name="coLinux LAN TAP Interface" />

Windows reports the TAP interface as "unplugged" :-(

I normally run colinux on my laptop with two TAP adapters, one 
windows-bridged to the wireless adapter, and one with a static IP so 
that I can access colinux (web, FTP, ssh and even dns!) via the static 
IP with or without a net connection, and colinux connects to the net 
using DHCP via eth0, when I get connected to the net at home or work.

But I've been having a problem where my DHCP servers keep giving out the 
same IP to both windows and colinux, so I'd hoped to switch my 
colinux->eth0->net path to use slirp instead, to bypass this problem.

thanks!
