Guys, I am trying to get a network going between the host and a qemu guest, using the tap device. I can ping from guest to host and from host to guest, but I can only ssh from guest to host! Ssh from host to guest fails with # ssh 172.20.0.10 ssh: connect to host 172.20.0.10 port 22: No route to host # ping 172.20.0.10 PING 172.20.0.10 (172.20.0.10) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 172.20.0.10: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.625 ms 64 bytes from 172.20.0.10: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.447 ms 64 bytes from 172.20.0.10: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.501 ms # route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface aa.bb.cc.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.254.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 1000 0 0 eth0 172.20.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 tap0 0.0.0.0 aa.bb.cc.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 # ifconfig tap0 tap0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr FA:4B:BC:51:B4:50 inet addr:172.20.0.1 Bcast:172.20.255.255 Mask:255.255.0.0 On the guest: # ping 172.20.0.1 PING 172.20.0.1 (172.20.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 172.20.0.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.625 ms 64 bytes from 172.20.0.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.447 ms 64 bytes from 172.20.0.1: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.501 ms # route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 172.20.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 0.0.0.0 172.20.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 The 172.20.0.x addresses are what the tapX devices are using by default. This is on Ubuntu 7.04 with the uml-utilities package.
