Aha. So it is user-mode networking. Gary, that's.. difficult. The thing is, there is no way I can think of the situation you describe. With user-mode networking, kvm is just a normal user-space process, like your web browser etc. You restart it, and it acts the same way as before -- unless something else started on your host which prevents it from working correctly. > My virtual machine is running Windows XP/Pro with SP3 and all the later > patches.

Note that with user-mode net in kvm, the dhcp server used is built-in to kvm, not any your local one. It provides fixed ip address - 10.2.2.2 if memory serves me right. See http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Networking for additional networking options. > My /etc/network/interfaces file is: > > auto lo > iface lo inet loopback > address 127.0.0.1 > netmask 255.0.0.0 > > mapping eth1 > script grep > map eth1 > > iface eth0 inet manual > > auto br0 > iface br0 inet dhcp > pre-up /usr/sbin/tunctl -u garydale -t tap0 > pre-up ifconfig tap0 up > bridge_ports all tap0 > post-down ifconfig tap0 down > post-down tunctl -d tap0 Note that you almost completed bridged networking setup for kvm for non-root user, only the kvm command line is missing. Please check your networking setup, and if you still has the issue please file a new bug.
