Hi James and Xen folks,

Apparently when I said the GPLPV net driver was sending and receiving
packets, I was not quite correct. I am having the following issues:

1) It successfully receives packets and passes them to the net stack by
calling NdisMIndicateReceivePacket(). However, something must be wrong
because the packets (incl DHCP offer) are not registering with the OS
and it ends up with a link-local (169.254.*.*) address.

2) In trying to diagnose #1, I tried to use Server2k3's Network Monitor,
however the my driver's interface does not show up in the interface list
due to some error.

Anyone with Windows net experience have a solution, or tips on how to
debug this?

Thanks -- Regards -- Andy
