I cannot get vde/dnsmasq working with KVM on CentOS 5.0. It works fine on FC6 basically following the instructions here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM. However, when I move to CentOS 5, I constantly get the "Sendto: bad file descriptor" error when I try to run with a vde tap interface. The error happens when the guest tries to setup networking. Has anyone had success with vde/dnsmasq on CentOS or another RHEL clone? Is there an alternative tap-based approach other than vde? Any help or pointers are appreciated.
