Re: nat does not work with hvm

[Erdem Bayer <ebayer@ttnet.net.tr>]

But the network-nat script still runs in that case right? So what should 
be in the qemu-ifup script? Also should there also be a qemu-ifdown 
script to undo the changes?

I think in the qemu-ifup I should write a rule to switch the vifX.0 
created by the network-nat script and the tap interface created by the 
qemu-ifup script? Am I right about this?

Thanks for help
